    I tend to forget to look at who is posting, and then usually about half-way through the post I’ll say to myself “who is posting this?” And go back to see. Didn’t happen this time, I should’ve looked. :lol:

    @la2vegas , I used this glue to fix the grills on my 25s:

    It’s held really well so far, and it’s been almost 6 months.
    Nice find!

    I'll give it a go. Thanks.

    No problem. I believe I found it at Hobby Lobby, of all places. That might’ve been the first and last time I went there willingly. :wink:

    No worries.... The IL Polkies dont want to claim me, which is fine because I dont want to claim I live in IL (ewwwww).... so we are both good to leave it as it is.

    Sorry had to take that easy shot. Too funny.

    Agreed, if we lived closer, our neighbors would hate us even more!.

    Keep an eye out on your local CL, letgo, offerup, facebook marketplace, antique sites, etc. I'm sure something local will come up. Like this: https://offerup.com/item/detail/395847552/

    Or you could "Ball Out" and have something custom made...from $3900 - $8950 , OUCH!!!

    I am driving down in October. I'm renting an SUV, but, may change that to a minivan, or, the biggest SUV they have. I'm planning on bringing down the Joule and PSA Memory Player and DAC.. Bringing back the Siena, EVO 845, Usher MD2's along with the items I'm taking down. Let me know what you need and I'll see if I can get a comfortable enough ride that will carry it all. trying to avoid the Transit type van...don't want to put 30 hrs round trip drive time in one of those.

    @DSkip There is a chance I have room to store them in my garage and then work on a handoff to @kharp1 for him to bring them down.

    @pitdogg2 is close and if he could hold them till I get over there to pick them up I can probably work around that.....

    Just a thought......

    Kerry: This is the item in question (it breaks into 4 pieces, 3 cabinets and a top)

    I would probably need some measurements. The Siena are four crates already, the Usher MD2's are fairly good size plus the Evo 845 and PSA stack. I really don't want to drive a cargo van for a week. I'm no Russ. I can't drive a bucket truck to go bar hopping.

    In red, with a few scratches and a nick. Price reflexes that though and these are roughly 800-1000 bucks less than others on the used market. A lot of speaker here for the money kids.

    @kharp1 These would be going from you to Skip, and not coming back. If I'm reading right, you have more space going down, its coming back (with the speakers) thats the problem.

    That isnt a problem since they are one way from you to Skip.

    Here's some stuff I ran across. Was interested in some of these pieces but family plans changed things for the coming months. Was close to pulling the trigger on the HSU CCB-8 speakers and maybe the Parasound or the nOrh amp. Anyway, maybe this might interest some here. Most are in the Chi area but some are in other states.

    Parasound HCA -10000a - $125
    https://offerup.com/item/detail/497680627/

    Here's a good opportunity for someone to try the new HSU speakers. Can make a set if they can get both to ship. Should come out cheaper than a single, $369 each. I was going to try these out myself based on the great reviews:
    HSU Research CCB-8 single speaker - $100 Thompson Station, TN
    https://us.letgo.com/en/i/center-speaker-hsu-ccb8-speaker_642c029e-2b98-47c7-88b1-4c8deaaacd16

    HSU Research CCB-8 single speaker - $190 Chandler, AZ
    https://offerup.com/item/detail/511082254/


    Find another single for cheap and one can get into the Ref line for much cheaper that the average going prices.
    Kef R500 - Single speaker - $475 (The price was lower on CL, but the ad is dead)
    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1097794330358276/

    Kef R900 - single speaker - $250 Detroit
    https://offerup.com/item/detail/525791693/


    Artison Portrait LRS surround speakers - $50 ($500 retail, I have a pair of these myself)
    https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/d/artison-portrait-lrs-surround/6671060712.html

    Gallo Acoustics CL-2 - $450
    https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/ele/d/gallo-acoustics-cl-2-speakers/6677143376.html

    (2) - Two Earthquake Sound SuperNova MKIV-15 - $800 Pair ($2900 each retail, I love the small size of these give the amount of air they can move.)
    https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/d/earthquake-sound-supernova/6671071270.html

    nOrh Multiamp - $250 - Cool active bi-amp that seems to be a nice piece. -
    review - https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=336.0
    https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/ele/d/norh-multiamp-power-amplifier/6672234888.html


    I would love to try this combo in my TV room! Mated with the Earthquake subs above, would shake things and bring my TV room to life!

    Kef Model 200C Reference Series center - $200 ($1000 Retail)
    https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/d/kef-model-200c-reference/6671071496.html

    Kef Reference Series Moudel Four - $895 ($5200 retail)

    I'm not saying I'm slow, but, I didn't pick up on that right away. That shouldn't be a problem. Measurements would still help. Overall length of the top probably most important.

    Sounds like you might be able to get em. I will let you get dimensions and then let me know if I need to make room for em and work on getting them.....

    I think there are two polkies near them @pitdogg2 and @stretchl

    If you can get someone to store them for a bit while I figure out when I can get over there I shouldn’t have a problem storing them, or meeting @kharp1 somewhere to exchange. I “think” they should fit in my Murano but I’d need dimensions too lol
