I can't believe I'm listening to everyone here. Don't I have enough Polk speakers already. A Monitor 70 HT, an Rti-A bookshelf HT in my basement, a pair of SDA 2Bs, LSi-7s in my office, Monitor 5A and 10As....need I continue!

I think my wife is going to get rid of me, because I have a lot of vintage gear as well. The most recent addition a Sansui AU-517 integrated!

I told a few of you that I had a lead on some Monitor 7Bs for $80 locally. And, of course, "everyone" said...you "really" need a set of those! lol

So here I am with a commitment to meet the guy who I bought my 10As from, he's moving and is thinning the herd...so 7Bs. Where am I going to put these? The 10As have been in a closet for a couple of months awaiting their grills (which another member has kindly offered me, gratis).

I don't know if I should hate all of you or thank you!

Well, I guess I finally get to hear the 7s!

    I'm interested to see which you like the best. The 10s or the 7s. Hope you do a comparison review of the two.

    I hear ya. I've owned the 4 series, 5B and heard the 10B's, which is why I'm purchasing the 7C's on the forum. Simply put, I've never heard them yet but have always heard of them as being the best in the Monitor line, and other lines as well...
