I have a pair of these 8 ohms each.
Will need a recone.
What would be a fair price for them ?

Without cones they are paper weights. Have you researched what they normally sell for with GOOD cones? Have any sold recently on eBay? Do you know of someone who can/will recone them and how much they would charge?

Failing any of that, how much would you take for them? How much $ would you rather have instead of your speakers?

All good questions Ed,
Nothing to compare or base a selling price off of on Ebay or Craigslist.
Though I did find out that old 70s folk band Magna Carta is still around !

I knew there wouldn't be a demand for these unless someone was a true vintage speaker aficionado.
 they have the cones in them as mentioned though they are blown (not by my hand)
Have a 215BH that i was restoring last year and all i need to do is retolex it and it's good to go for sale.
A few people here have pm'ed me about that when it's ready to sell.
If I still have the Magnas I may just throw them in the deal.
