edited January 2011 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
It's time to start moving a few things that I just don't use much any more. First up is one of the 2 channel systems, trying to move to less gear.

Polk LSi7 - These are cherry and are in very good condition. You can see from one pic that there is a slight scratch on the front upper corner of the right channel. It's very small and even less noticeable with the grills on, you can't see it from more than a foot away. These are easily living room presentable.

HD 3480 - THis 2 channel receiver has been talked about on here quite a bit, and I agree with everyone else that's it's a great receiver, really hard to beat this for 2 channel performance at anywhere near it's price range.

Sony SCD-CE595 - 5 Disc CD / SACD Player. This is a great player, and is also going to be very difficult to beat in it's price range. Here's a review I found back when I bought it that kinda sealed the deal for me at the time - http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0205/sonyscdce595.htm

Audioquest Speaker Cables - I don't recall the exact model of these, but they're banana type connectors on both ends and they're blue. I remember paying $89 for them at the Tweeter 'moving out of Texas' sale. All I know is they're very good and were a significant improvement over the generic cables I had before them.

Signal Cable Analog 2 interconnects - Great set of interconnects, bought these from Russ I believe. They're probably 1 - 2 feet in length, I can pull them out and measure if that's in question.

Fillable Speaker Stands - I don't recall the brand on these, but they're fillable and they're perfect for the LSi7 (they put the speakers at the right ear level for sitting on a couch or chair and the wood stain on the bases is also a good match to the cherry sides on the LSi7. I searched for the perfect stand forever, and paid about $120 for these.

My asking price is $500, and I think this setup is a steal at that price. The speakers and receiver alone could fetch this price together, and you're getting the SACD player, cables and stands to completely round out the system.

I'm firm at $500, so if someone is keeping an eye out waiting for me to lower the price, it's not going to happen on this one. Someone can set me straight if I'm wrong, but I think I have a great price, and price really shouldn't be the reason if these don't sell.

Right now I'm going to keep this a local sale in the DFW area. I may entertain shipping if it doesn't sell here locally, and I believe I do have boxes for all the big items, but I'm nervous about shipping the speakers and would really rather keep this to a local sale.

    Hah, I'm glad I'm NOT local! Getting a bonus this week and it would be very hard to resist grabbing what looks like a great deal!

    Good luck with your sale. Someone is going to be a happy camper.

    I have almost the exact identical setup but it cost me way more than 500 bones. That's an awesome deal.

    That is a hell of a deal. Makes me tempted to drive down to Dallas. I would never hear the end of it from the other half though.

    Those aren't model cars, you fool, they are individually engineered die cast vibration dampening frequency stabilizers, they are specifically designed and hand picked to make your speakers sound more spacious and vivacious. Upon applications to my reference grade speakers, a veil was lifted, the difference was night and day, I had no idea what reference meant until I carefully positioned these wonders. All of this straight to your door for a low introductory price of $3600, a 50% savings from the retail value!

    I wish you had sold these back when I was living in Oklahoma City a month or two ago, great deal

    calgoose, I'll keep you in mind for shipping.

    I can assure everyone that there are no marks or scratches as a result of having the cars sitting on top.

    No interest locally?

    I'll give this another day or so then I'll open it up to shipping, was really hoping to avoid that risk though.

    Also, I would be willing to split it up if I can sell the speakers locally, they're the only thing I'm really nervous about shipping.

    So I'll do $275 for the LSi7 locally.

    I forgot to mention that I'll also entertain any trade offers for headphone gear, need another headphone rig here for the office. I'd prefer cash since money is a bit tight, but will listen to trade offers as well.
