Hey @nikonik where's your holiday spirit? If they show up in your backyard the polite thing to do would be to at least invite them in.
Just sayin'.
Your right, I called and thought do I really need a 3rd set? So I passed but about a week later he said he had a buyer from Idaho and I don't know if it fell through or not. The speakers are 10-15 min away from me. On a positive note, I did trade a set of M10 and LF14 for a set of SDA 1C this past weekend. It was a listing farther north but we met half way and that was even better! I do admit it is very hard to pass up something so close as my other 2 had to be shipped from the east.

These have been for sale in San Diego for several months. They look great but probably priced too high, otherwise they would've sold by now. No affiliation.

I would buy them for $275 but he is a dealer so who knows what he has up his sleeve.

I would love to have a pair of those 12's. Just because I am becoming a hoarder of all things Polk.

The RTA-12B and C's are the best non SDA vintage Polk speakers I have heard, in some aspects they even beat out SDA's (center imaging for instance). I paid $225 for mine, ended up giving them to a friend for free. I tried selling them for something around $200 with two extra Peerless tweeters and an extra MW6600X and I still couldn't get rid of them. I don't know why.
Worth it I am sure, he has close to $500+ in tweeters alone. After that I can only imagine the internal mods.

Is that a new high asking price for a set of 1.2tl's?
$3665.00 ?
I remember good sets going for 2K just a year or two ago.
Those belong to VR3, you gotta know they were modded very well.
He doesn't mention any in depth modifications. That isn't like him, so it makes me wonder if any mods were done to the crossovers. That would be a huge selling point not worth leaving out.

When I dont need a set, they show up in my backyard. Thats how it goes...

It helps me sleep at night. Even if it is on a bed of speakers.

Saying that it's "too hard" to pursue your dreams is no different than admitting to yourself that you are too lazy to achieve them.

No...it means since he's a newly wed, he priced them so they hopefully don't sell
