    Some will say that's too much, others will say it's not enough.

    That in my eyes be a good price for a pair with missed crossovers and new RDO-198 tweeters but they look stock so in my eyes no.
    Absolute corruption empowers absolutely.

    Its higher than we paid but I could not find a speaker that sounds like that for $3,000. It s a riddle for sure.

    They have become harder to find if the few years I have been here, so if you really want them I would get them, but for that kind of money make sure that's what you want..

    I drove to the quad cities from KC to pick up my 2.3's. About 5-1/2 hours one way. Worth every mile!

    $3000 Canadian dollars? I'm not familiar with the exchange rate.

    Unmodified but otherwise good condition, I'd be uncomfortable paying more than $2000 US dollars. Preferably less--I think $1800 is a fair price. A motivated buyer might see things differently. 6-hours one-way is practically local. An easy one-day excursion, no overnight, no hotel. Any SRS I see are a thousand or more miles from me, which is a primary reason I don't have a pair of SRS-series speakers.

    Due to the vapor transfer process the tweeters came out either silver, black/silver or slightly gold toned. Polk would color match them for each pair.

    Damn! $3000. I'd sell mine for that! nearly mint all original w/ interconnect and original boxes. second owner. Man. i haven;'t seen any go quite that high before. The price is up to the seller and buyer. But definately worth the drive. I drove close to that for my SRS and just a little shorter for my 1.2TL's. very few peices of my used gear (that are of significant quality) that I have collected have not been driven some distance for.

    Good luck either way.
    If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of Progress?!
