Just to be clear, I love my newly rebuilt monitor 10As. (Thanks for the education Dave!) That said, I've read that the 7s are the cream of the Monitor series & I've been keeping my eye out for some. These just came up locally & there's also a set of 5s with them that I would gift to my daughter.
The seller says the crossovers are already done (Dayton & Mills) and assuming the drivers & PR pass the push test, does this look worthwhile? I also can't tell which tweeters they are, so some clues there would be helpful

That is a great price for the Monitor 7 series II. The Monitor 7 with all of the standard updates is a great sounding speaker.
I am with boston, run, do not walk and buy these. They will not last long at that price. -
Says original but both are not original versions but are original Polk speakers.
Yes, confusing.
