Selling my 2.3TL's. I will rate these at 5/10. The crossovers have been rebuilt with 1% Dayton caps. Two extra MW-6510 drivers included. The cloth is acceptable but has the typical kitty claw marks and some light staining. The top and bottom panels are acceptable with your typical small dings and scratches. One 15" passive was dropped by a previous owner and has an ever so slight warp that does not affect performance. The tweeters are original with three of them having slight dents in the domes. I could part these out for more than my asking price , but I would like to keep them whole and in the Polk family. $575.00, local pickup only, in Boise, Idaho.

Selling my Adcom GFA-555 amp. Has the usual ding here and there,nothing bad though. Sounds great, makes no noise on shutdown. I bought this from erniejade and it just isn't used any more. Too much gear sitting around doing nothing. $295.00 shipped in conus. (lower 48 only)

I don't have paypal, so money order as payment for the amp and cash for the speakers on pickup. Thanks for looking!

    I was using the Adcom to power the 2.3's. You are right, makes a great combo. I started to use a Onkyo A-10 that I found used, never bothered to switch back. Both amps are really good!

    Saturday Bump. Price to high? Bad location? Bad economy? Comments?

    Just bought a pair of these and an amp about 3 or 4 weeks ago or I would have probably jumped on these. I was just in Boise last Tuesday.

    That is a good price on both. I think location is a big factor with the 2.3TL's (as with any SDA speakers which are just too big and/or too expensive to ship) because I know if I lived within a few hundred miles of you, I'd be all over those speakers.

    GLWTS.

    If only there was a train to WI from ID that they would be able to be loaded on.

    Any Polkies ever travel this way? I've been wanting to try a pair of 2.3TL's for a bit.

    For good reason too Chris. They are fantastic speakers!

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I am surprised that these are still available at this price. This is a great deal and someone should jump on this.

    Only reason I haven't snapped up the 555 is because I already have 5 amps in my house including 3 555s...fantastic price people.

    The reason they are hard to sell :-)

    There are 1957 mi
    from Boise, ID to Pearland, TX

    That's the driving distance. It would take 1 day 7 hours to go from Boise, Idaho to Pearland, Texas.

    The flight distance (direct flight from Boise, ID to Pearland, TX) is 1508.36 mi.
