Hi all!

My brother gave me a set of speakers a few years ago and I just don't have room for them anymore and I'm looking to sell them but I can't seem to find any information on them.

They are identified as Monitor Series 2.

Can anyone shed some light on what their specifications are and what they are worth?

Thanks for your time!

    I see you are in Columbia. I think you have the price about right at $75.
