1.2TL's for sale

edited March 2013 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
Well, after MUCH deliberation with my conscience, I have decided to let go of my beloved TL's. With my new extremely limited budget I can no longer juggle two expensive hobbies (hifi and musclecars). And I am dying to get my Roadrunner's engine back up to speed. So, for $1700 dollars you will get a pair of SDA SRS 1.2TL's with the coveted AI-1 interconnect. Both speakers are in very nice condition both visually and sonically. They are finished in walnut. I will deliver within a fairly ridiculous area of Kansas City, we can determine what exactly is ridiculous later. Since I have fairly limited internet access at the moment, I will foolishly (?) put my phone number on here. I am best reached in the evening at 913.755.3804.
So here ya go guys. I realize at this price they're not a STEAL but we all know these go for more than 2 K on ebay. Then you have to pay shipping, so this ain't that bad a deal. If you do live out of the ridiculous area, we'll have to figure something out. Thanks guys!

    Olanen, I'm not looking to make a killing on these, just want to offer them to "family" members at a good price.

    I think that Stubby should be commended for thinking of his fellow forum members before the generally a nuisance, public :D


    He joins the ranks of others, including my personal favorite, Russman ;)

    That's a great deal, hope they go quick!

    Doro, I agree with you 100%. Stubby did do the right thing and offer his speakers to Club Polk first! He is also a real gentleman and very professional.
    I am soon to be the proud owner of these speakers which I have been looking for for many months.
    Hats off to you Stubby..

    IMO don't be afraid to go cheap at first and then play with more expensive later on.

    Stubby,

    Since you already sold your 1.2TL's I wonder if you keep some
    spares for the 1.2TL's eg. SL3000's, Drivers. If you have
    some of these I want to buy from you.

    Let me know,
    Har

    Big Dan....

    Do you really prefer Polk's over Thiels?

    I ALMOST bought a set of used Thiels CS6's.
    But, when I listened to them.... they really didn't sound any better (to me) than the classic Polk's.

    Do you agree?

    Thanks for the kind words, guys. Dan is a real class act himself and I would highly recommend him for any transaction.
    Har, no I haven't accumulated any spare parts over the years. Sorry.

    I was also curious myself why this old post was resurrected and, after reading through it, I am more curious as to how the speakers were moved from Kansas City to MA. I assume there must have been a long road trip because I cannot imagine shipping those monster speakers.
