Acoustic Research AR91 Floorstanding Loudspeakers

Description


AR91 from 1980. Wonderful speakers that can hold their own against modern models.

- Crossovers recapped with film types

- Some faulty resistors replaced

- Tweeter foam, midrange foam and felt are original

- Original grill frames are solid but I replaced the black cloth with original AR maroon cloth from a pair of other AR speakers

New Dayton satin nickel binding posts

- Poly gloss finish. First I took off the original ‘walnut’ paint which exposed the gorgeous underlying veneer. I filled the grain, then treated it with a Norglass marine product to deepen the colour and extend its life. After that I applied 7 coats of marine polyurethane over 3 months. Then I hand sanded it back all the way to 6000 grit and followed by hand polishing with 3 compounds to a gloss finish.

I doubt you’ll find a pair of these speakers anywhere in the world with such a finish.
