    Excellent deal if everything works.

    Those are some nice speakers. They appear to be in good shape and the price is not bad. You used to be able to get these for around 100, but it seems like the price for vintage speakers has gone up the last couple of years. Take a look at them and if they are in good shape operationally and cosmetically, offer him $130-140. You'll have a great pair of speakers for that price.

    If you were interested in them you made a mistake posting them here. You were just asking for someone to grab them before you had a chance to. It wasn't me...

    erm...it was flagged for removal. Not removed by poster like he'd sold it or something.

    Ahh, not sure I'd go that high. Although I probably would for the RTA12B's in this ad.

    Some original Monitor 10s, SDA CRSs, Zu Audio Omens (soon to be for sale), and a pair of LSi 703s in another system. I'm using a modded pair of SDA SRS 2s in my main system. I also had a set of DCM Timeframe Tcf 375 and 400s laying around, but I just gave them away to a buddy of mine.
