    There are some 4's there, they are the smaller ones towards the outside of pic 3 with the smaller square tweets. the black speakers in the middle beside the center channel, are labeled Monitor 5 series 2. The ones between those 2, with the Peerless tweets are early version Monitor 5 Jr's.

    I would like to appologize and correct any confusion i may have caused. DSkip was correct. the black speakers are indeed monitor series 2 but they are M4.6. I had some of the M5 series twos and some others that I sold a while back and was confused. I pulled those back out and check again and indeed they are the M4.6, not the M5 series 2's. Good call DSkip.

    Man I lusted after the L810's back in the day. Those were some seriously good speaks. I had L700's which I really liked - until I bought the RTA 12C's. They trounced the L700's in every way. Wish I had the L700's still - they would have been fun to mod.

    Exactly. I can almost never decide what to sell. I did get rid of 5 more pairs of speakers and a stack of gear last night though. One would think that would open up some extra space, but in fact it only helped slightly clean some space that was way overcrowded already.
