I don't know what the rd0194's sound like, but the rd0198's in my 2A's sound smooth without lacking any detail.

Apologies if these have been posted before. Not sure if it's a deal or not, but not much coin...

These are priced very nice. Would be a good entry into full sounding SDA for someone. The small chips
in the veneer could be repaired, or even touched up and they would hardly be noticed. The 2.3's have pin/blade interface cable connections and can use the Dreadnought isolation transformer. -
Indeed.

Hi guys. I have three pairs of Polk Audio speakers and thinking to sell two of them (Monitor 7c and RTA 12c). Looking for an advice on how to sell, so they will end up in good hands, and for fair market price.
Is it the right thread to ask? -
Try Craigslist. Do a search on eBay "completed items" for what they are selling for currently.Gustard X26 Pro DAC
Belles 21A Pre modded with Mundorf Supreme caps
B&K M200 Sonata monoblocks refreshed and upgraded
Polk SDA 1C's modded / 1000Va Dreadnaught
Wireworld Silver Eclipse IC's and speaker cables
Harman Kardon T65C w/Grado Gold. (Don't laugh. It sounds great!)

Yeah, it’s obvious. But it doesn’t help much, cuz basically eBay prices are exceed common sense and craigslist listings expire in a week. So it doesn’t much with both problems.. -

The RTA12c is a very good speaker and I've tried to buy a set here near me for years. The seller does own an audio store and feels they are worth 600.00 yet the top hats are in terrible shape and there is sun fading on one side of one of the speakers. I offered 250 and he flat out laughed. I then told him I would need to recap the XO and that cost is going to be substantial. He then recapped them with TERRIBLE cheap electrolytic caps and then preceded to tell me how cheaply he was able to do it. Then he wanted 750.00 since they were "recapped", It was my turn to laugh and walk out...
The best thing for you to do is settle on a price YOU think is far and go from there. The problem is not many want speakers of this caliber anymore, big floor standers do not have the WAF going for them.
You will need 100 post to list them here FWIW so keep that in mind. -
Appreciate your thoughts, definitely helpful to me. Will list by end of the week on ebay and etc.
I love both M7 and RTA12 but for pretty different rooms. Finally decided to let them go and keep only SDA 2B. -

No link? Are you the middle man someone must go through? -
No, I'm not a middle man as I've clearly posted having no affiliation. The seller will more than likely sell them tomorrow morning as he has a few likely customers.
I auditioned them today and they are 2.3TL's in all their glory. Unfortunately they have a few cosmetic issues that I would be willing to ignore if I didn't have some mint examples of this very model already. -
I would be happy to ignore a lot to have those.

"Local pickup is preferred". That ain't no bull. I would be hesitant to buy a single MW shipped without it being epoxyed.
