I am looking for a pair of Polk mini monitors in good condition with all original drivers and grills just like these. I just missed a pair on eBay. Thanks.

Still looking for a pair of these.

Can I ask why? From what I have read the 5jr and 5 are the better speaker, so unless you are just collecting vintage Polk Speakers I don’t see why one would want them, plus the hassle of refoming if needed, I also find them fugly..
Just my .02 and curious why one would want them.. -
Lol, I thought they were photoshopped !!

I think they're freaking cool. Majorly lacking in bass, probably, but those tiny PRs are too neat.afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

They are a fun speaker to listen to. Darn near what is called computer monitors these days

They were meant for the killer app of their day -- installation in the shag carpeted nether regions of a Chevy van*!They are a fun speaker to listen to. Darn near what is called computer monitors these days
They weren't bad at all -- easily on par with the other minispeakers of their day
(Visonik Davids, ads L200/L300) and arguably, maybe, even a little better sounding.
(I wasn't quite objective vis-a-vis Polk products in those days).
I'd love to find a pair, ideally the original version with the trapezoidal, "stage-monitor" shaped enclosures!
