I must sell my beautiful rta12 speakers as I am moving. These are beautiful wood speakers with the tweeter on the top. The tweeter has the two gorgeous "transformers/coils" on the top. The highs are pristine and the bottom is full and low. The only drawback is the black cover for the tweeter is missing (which to me is a plus, because the tweeters look too good to cover up!!) and one of the small midrange speakers may need replacing. They sound great as they are now. These are great speakers, great for anyone with an ear and an eye for music. These sold for 800 new. Make an offer. I live in Miami, fl
Feel free to call at 954-929-7733 Email me for photos. randy@randysinger.com I WOULD NOT BE SELLING THESE SPEAKERS IF I WAS NOT MOVING!!

thank you.

    My friend turned down a pair of these for $175 at Goodwill. Maybe he should have given it a little more thought??

    They sold pretty quickly. About 3 days. That is what started making me wonder what they were really worth.

    i got mine for 100.00 because no one bid in them on ebay, the cabs were a little rough, but not nearly as bad as the seller described. sound pristine and as i have said before, the best 100.00 i ever spent on audio equipment. i would say in good shape, anything below 200.00 is a no brainer. i probably wouldnt go above 250.00, but i might be saying this because i allready have a pair.

    just my .02
