This is the last thing I thought would go this year but I need to raise some money for an upcoming wedding.
Speakers have been recently refinished.
A couple caps were changed quite a while ago.
These are the TL's so they have the more desirable SL3000 tweeters installed.
2 pin cable included.
These speakers crank on my 45wpc Bedini amplifier and very musical.
I live in N.Florida and will not ship.
Condition conservatively good to very good. You would have to move these speakers outside into daylight to see any slight defects. Electrically, they are in excellent condition and have not been abused.
No gouges in wood, no rips in cloth
Pictures to follow.
Would be glad to discuss over the phone.

Would be good to describe any mods in detail, e.g., which caps replaced with what brands, plus anything else done to them.

I tested all the caps quite some time ago and replaced a couple that tested marginal on my cap analyzer.
It was a cap that was not in the signal path, I don't recall which one.
I did it because I'm OCD when it comes to electronics and make sure my components perform as new.Main System- Scratch built 2A3 , Lightspeed preamp, Technics SP15/Graham/XV1s,Klipschorns w/ALK xovers/Trachorns, Speakercraft MT8(4), Sonos ZP90, Yamaha Aventage for surround

If someone wants to get some of the best SDA's ever made this would be the time.

Thanks, deaf. Just wondering about the caps that "were changed quite a while ago" and polyswitches. No biggie.

Do you mean to say almost 50 percent if "shipping" is included? Because 31.25% is not really "almost 50 percent less". More like almost a 1/3 less...which is fine!
And what's up with the "dark" tweeter? Is that a replacement tweeter or just some photo light/shadow effect?
Fine pair of SDAs!

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you could figure out that he meant the other guy's speaks are ~50% more than his (and maybe not mentioned it?). But that was some doggone good math you did there. b]Beach Audio[/b]: Rega RP6 (mods) - AT33PTG/II - Parks Budgie SUT - PSAudio NPC * Eversolo DMP-A6 * Topping D90iii * Joule-Electra LA-100 mkIII * Pass Aleph 30 * MIT S3 * Polk SRS 2.3tl (mods) * PSAudio PPP3
