I’ve been watching for a decent yet affordable Monitor 7. Finally found a pair of Monitor 7 Series 2 in perfect working order. The cabinets have a few scratches but not horrible. One grill has a hole. I knew I shouldn’t have given my excess audio gear, that my wife would love for
me to get rid of. They are hard to hide but for $63 I couldn’t pass them up.
These were the Polks that I was going to buy originally but was swayed by 50% off a pair of RTA11TL back in ‘91. Even listening in a less than ideal setup, I can see why these are so legendary.
