    Oh man...I'm sorry, earlier I totally read your post wrong.

    I wonder what shipping to SoCal would be on these..?

    I'm South of you in Vancouver right now but occasionally do cover work in Seattle when tower crane operators need time off for something. You ever been to that Goodwill?

    Wondering myself.
    Robert, @audioluvr was considerate enough to bid on them and store for me if successfully bid. Haven't heard either way. $598 didn't seem like a bad deal for someone. The only pair I've seen this far north went for $1000 and wasn't in very good shape at all.

    Man... that @audioluvr is a really nice guy...
    Yes it looks like someone got a good deal for sure.
    I hope it turns out to be you bud...

    There's a set near me for sale for $900ish and in not to bad of shape.
    I picked up a set of RTA-15TL's so I'm happily back on the fence.

    RTA15tl's have eluded me so far. I guess at this point and time I've become a little more selective as to the overall condition of speakers that I purchase.

    These are in purdy good condition appearance wise. They have the new tweeter upgrade and the crossovers have been re-capped.

    I'm currently using two rta11tl's in custom cabinets together as my center channel speaker/s behind an AC screen in my theater.

    I'm replacing the 11TL's with the 15tl's...

    I'm not cutting up the speeakers!
    Just like the 11tl's that are now going back together and will be exactly as they were, the 15tl's can be put back together to their original state as well.

    I'm just removing the parts from the cabinets and installing them into a new cabinet/s and storing the original cabinets.

    No harm was done to any polk speakers.... but they sure do make for one hell of a bad a$$ center channel speaker/s!!!!
