    On a global scale, yes. Not exactly my neck of the woods, however... A bit too far to go to check them out.

    SRS2's? North of Chicago. $350 hard to tell, but blade/blade IC. Deal?

    Keep up with the thread, verb! I posted those here on the 17th! :tongue:

    Oh man sorry! Was focusing on DIY disasters! Are you near that guy?

    Don't think we have any one "decently" close to those on the forum.

    We've got a few that are in the Rockford area, some in the Plainfield area, and a few on the northern IN side but not many that close to WI near Chicago.

    I had a friend who had the 8's. Man they sounded good. I bought some 8's years later myself. Still have them too.

    Very underrated speaker. My first Polk. You could triple your money parting them out. Waste on these since they're in nice shape.

    There has been a set of LS50's for sale here on CL over a month. Price dropped down to 99 bucks, from 150 originally. Hmmm. :smile:

    My old friend who stopped by today, Loved the sound from the LS90's also. He STILL remembers the GREATNESS of the SDA-SRS2's sound also.

    I'm telling you, I've heard the LS50's and LS90"s are the great ones. The LS70's have bigger woofers and some say their sound isn't as good or tight maybe. I'd like to hear a pr. of LS50's myself. Even the LS70's to hear what others might be referring to.
