I found these on the local Craigslist and would like to know what a fair price is, and are they wort it? I did a couple of searches, but found no info. Thanks for your help.

    A little sticky side of masking tape should pull those dust caps into place. Not sure the value but I am sure someone will pipe up soon.

    The listing says they are the 3.1tl's. Where would you say they rank in the SDA SRS pecking order? I have been very interested in picking up a pair to head down the modification rabbit hole with and want to make sure I get a good pair.

    Those are pretty rare/uncommon models, and I'd have no hesitation in paying the asking price, just so I could try them out. :wink:

    That's a good deal.
    The old drivers are the best you can repair that dust cap easy enough.
    They are 3.1 TLS third from the largest. Tls can take the new rdo-198 upgrade
    and also you can update with the Gimpod Crossover boards. If they are close I would get them.
