...on what appeared to be a minty pair of SDA-2's with the interconnect cable for $50!
He said he unhooked them for another pair of speakers a number of years ago and they have been stored inside since.
I couldn't get down there right away and he had 3 more people waiting in line.
Well, congrats to somebody else. Maybe another polkie picked them up? Plainoldave?
This would have been perfect as I am slowly trying to build a second system in a dedicated listening room.
Not sure I'll see an opportunity like this for some time.

Yes you did miss out... why did you have to let us know though John, because I also missed out :sad:"....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963) -
John, I'm looking for that sale on eBay and can't find it. Do you have a link. Curious about the details there.

John looks like it might be a single speaker not a pair."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963) -

His description was for a pair... and Magnepan confirmed they come two in a box for them. The accessory kit (stands, etc.) come in a separate box.
IMHO, this was the steal of a lifetime.The Gear...

Nah, your 20.1's for 1200 was a steal of a lifetime given their standard cost from a vendor....."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963)
