    Curious about the "open box" designation. My 705's are not the first pair I've owned. The first pair, bought during a F&F sale, had both performance(bad tweeters) & serious fit & finish issues. They went back. If those are the kind of speakers one gets buying open box from Adorama, I'd pass. They are no bargain.

    Really? I bought my 704c refurbished direct from Polk for like $204 plus tax with free shipping, and at the same time they were selling the 703s for about $200 a piece plus tax. I have seen that deal twice.

    As for the quality of Adorama open box products, all I know is that their customer service is first rate. As long as the return policy holds on those it would be worth a shot, although I would argue about shipping costs if I received clearly damaged goods.

    Anyone know how these compare to the Signature series? Worth the difference to upgrade for music to LSiM?

    I bought some S60's open box. One delivered with a big gash. Ado took it back and paid the freight and sent a replacement. I wouldn't hesitate to buy any open box.

    Other; M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    LSI are a much better speaker than RTi/Signature lines. It's all about the almighty dollar, If you can afford them go for it and get a nice amp to drive them well.

    I didn't want to go in debt for speakers so I have Signature speakers, which do sound very good
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.
