TIA

    $750ish

    I mean sound quality wise they should be worth more, but when they closed them out they were going for real cheap. Add in that it’s very difficult to find replacement tweets when one needs them I think that’s a fair price.

    @milito? I remember you saying you moved yours pretty quickly when you got your L600s. Would you mind?

  • Bought mine for $800 off Craigslist 4 years ago, midnight mahogany, if that helps. Very nice condition, not perfect but close. Thought that seemed like a pretty fair deal for both parties, considering the pricing at the time. I think the closeout prices happened after that but can’t remember for sure.
