    We don't use "score" here, that's reserved for AK.

    it looks like they're mismatched... sl-1000 on one, and peerless on the other. Easy fix, and still a great score!

    Nice find! They look like the same version I have. I'll eventually get around to replacing the locked up woofers and get to hear them.

    Great find.

    I love finding deals like this. It makes my soul giggle like a little kid playing with a new toy that lights up and makes funny sounds and a great deal like this also puts a smile on my face that lasts for days.

    CONGRATS on a great find.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    I'm thinking that might just be the light playing tricks on the camera.

    I thought that at first too, but it looks like the lighter colored one has the "polk audio" name on the bottom... sl1000's have that, but not peerlesses. Also, the possible sl1000's dome really looks transparent to me...
