Hi, I inherited these floor speakers from a family member probably 20 years ago. I’m not an audiophile, so I have no way of knowing what they are or how they stack up in performance. I just know that Polk is an awesome brand and puts out a great speaker.
I used them for years, but I’m moving to a small place and they’re too big to take. I’d like to sell them, but it would be helpful if anyone can give me some info on what model they are, age, and approximate market value. They measure about 14”w x 24”h. The serial number is 7B- 36681.
Thanks so much for any input!

How small is the room you're moving into?

Are they really worth that much? I was thinking maybe $75, so if you’re right, I’m glad that I asked.
I would keep them. It would have to be a really small living room for them to be too big for. From an audio perspective I mean. Visually too big, that's subjective.
Anything smaller and $150 would get schooled by the M7's.

When you move, be sure they are on their back to avoid magnet slip. Also, even if you account for the cost of new caps, finding a better pair will be difficult at best.
You will pry them from my cold, dead fingers.
You will not touch their sound at the selling price.
Just beware that you might find a rabbit hole ;-)
Not anytime soon I hope!!!!!
Some people chase estate sales, feel safe in knowing that I don't.
Hey there is nothing wrong with estate sales. Of course my wife might disagree. Speakers just love to follow me home from. In fact a week ago a pair of lsi 9s asked me very nicely to take them home. I could not help but to adopt them and their gourgous cherry finish. Granted only my main rig is beefy enough to play them at the moment.
My comment was a playful rib for one @mhardy6647. Don't take my comment personal, I have nothing against estate sales nor the vultures that hover above them.
Just beware that you might find a rabbit hole ;-)
