[/quote] I contacted the seller, he states that the interconnect is pin/pin. What?[/quote]
There's no such thing as a pin/pin socket LOL. Ask him if there's a round hole and a rectangular slot or 2 rectangular slots.

Are you referring to photo #4 in the Ebay ad? If so, the cable is plugged in so it's impossible to tell what type of connection it is.SDA SRS 2.3TL's

What's up with these odd birds out in the Valley of the Sun?https://tucson.craigslist.org/spo/d/3-vintage-polk-audio-speakers/6419065375.html
The layout says 5jr+, but the tweets are wrong, and the offset is very odd. But hell, at $60 for 3 of them, I'd say it's worth the gamble. You could always part them if the boxes are bogus. -

They are talking about a different listing.
Although I would like to be the first to point out that the baggie includes an AI-1 cable. -

That is AI-1 interconnect much better cable than regular p/b interconnect. It add at least 100.00 to the set
There was never anything other than pin/blades in the 2.3 series -

He says that those 1.2's weigh 150 pounds each. UTTER POPPYCOCK!!! They weigh 185 pounds each according to the sales pamphlet I have right here in my hands. That ad made it sound like they didn't know much about those speakers.
