Wierd your link only does my hometown and not those speakers, oh well.

Sorry about that. It’s either operator error or a function/limitation of OfferUp. I’ll look into what I might have done wrong and if I figure it out I’ll repost the link.

I had a pair of those pass through here a while back. The mids had a mild but annoying buzzing even after a proper refoam. Other than that they were ok at best.

The mids are domes that need to be replaced, not refoamed or am I confused?afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

The ones I had didn't have domes. Apparently they used both types.

I know the seller. Absolutely first-rate gentleman!
I owned that pair for a little bit. The mids are brand new replacements from Simply Speakers. The cabinets are in great condition and the pots are completely quiet, which is a rarity.KEF Xq5s / Velodyne DD12 / Apollon Purifi 1ET6525SA / SST Thoebe II / Bluesound Node 130 / Oppo BDP-105D / Technics SP-15 w/SAEC WE-308SX & Ortofon AS-309 arms / Audio-Technica ART-1 & Dynavector XX2 Mk II carts -

Yes. If the dome is physically damaged, but the driver is still functional, then you can have the dome material replaced.KEF Xq5s / Velodyne DD12 / Apollon Purifi 1ET6525SA / SST Thoebe II / Bluesound Node 130 / Oppo BDP-105D / Technics SP-15 w/SAEC WE-308SX & Ortofon AS-309 arms / Audio-Technica ART-1 & Dynavector XX2 Mk II carts -

Polk SDA SRS in South Denver for $1K. Not sure which variant (looks like SL2000s though) as the pics are less than stellar. Also, don't know if the toy car on top is included.

There's a pair of Polk SDA SRS 1.2 for $800 on Audiokarma Barter Town. They are near Cincinnati. Go get 'em boys!
Here's the text from the ad:
I have a pair of fully operational Polk Audio SDA-SRS 1.2's for sale.
All drivers are fully functional.
They need new grille cloth and some work on the top and bottom wood caps.
Crossovers were rebuilt - speakers sound good.
One of the passive radiators cracked and I repaired it, AND there is a pair of like new radiators here in a box to replace the current ones.
I also have a pair of donated original crossovers to go with them.
Pair of speakers, crossovers, radiators, original SDA cable - $800 picked up.
