WTB one Monitor 7b with Peerless

Hello
I embarrassingly ended up with one 7b #48430 and, by golly, I'd like another for some stereophonic sound! Help!

There is one for sale in FL with a "bad crossover". eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/233996897156?_trkparms=aid=777008&algo=PERSONAL.TOPIC&ao=1&asc=20201018205123&meid=84af8654c19847d0a11d7208aec58874&pid=101286&rk=1&rkt=1&mehot=none&itm=233996897156&pmt=1&noa=1&pg=2380057&algv=WatchlistVariantWithMLR&brand=Polk+Audio&_trksid=p2380057.c101286.m47999&_trkparms=pageci:6ede9e64-dc11-11eb-9796-3e26da056357|parentrq:6cefe80717a0a44d43c9c95bffe6a1f2|iid:1

Thanks garden stater! Yeah i saw that one and the serial number is five away from mine, match made in heaven! Wanted to check here before i went for it.

Was going to attempt a crossover anyway. I think the corrosion on the tweeter face is deserving of a discount...

Gardenstater

Well you certainly are in luck! White deposits on tweeter are aluminum oxide. Maybe it was in a salt air environment. You could use the chips in the cabinet as a negotiating point as well. Good luck.

Thanks planning on a veneer job as well

Well he not only accepted my $40 offer he for some reason have me an additional $30 discount. Much appreciated, $10 plus shipping! Let the restoration of Polk Audio 7b's #48430 and #48425 begin!

Gardenstater

Awesome! I don't know where you live but shipping to WA would be $80, so everywhere closer is less. NJ $50, VA $50. I don't know how the prequoted fixed shipping on eBay works, and whether the seller can adjust depending on actual shipping costs.

Figured that could be it. Duluth Minnesota

Gardenstater

Well I don't know. Looks like you paid $16 plus $64 shipping. I hope he double boxes it and the magnet doesn't shift. https://www.fedex.com/en-us/online/rating.html
