scratch-n-dent CS400i

deadhead

A local store has a scratch 'n dent CS400i center channel speaker for $99. Needs a tweeter (dome pushed in) and the front cover is missing. No idea if the other drivers are good, but they don't show any physical damage. What would the parts cost?

Thanks.

I already have a CS400i and I love it, so it's always good to have another!

The tweeter may not even be a problem. It is relatively easy to take the tweeter apart and push the dome back out. If you did have to replace the tweeter, it would probably cost between $50-$100(although Polk doesn't supply the trilaminate dome tweeters anymore). New grills are ysually between $20-$25. Overall, it sounds like a good deal at that price. I'm sure there are a few people that would take it off your hands if bought it and didn't want it.

grab it, fix it and use it for your sixth channel if you want.

99 is outstanding for that speaker.

Thanks for your help.
I looked on the Polk parts lists and could find any CS400i parts listed. What part are tweeter and grill part numbers and most of all, are parts still available?

The tweeter dome is smashed flat, not a simple dent.

just call Ken S at Polk CS and he'll hook you up. Tell him we sent you.

Thanks, I just called the parts lady and she said parts I need are in stock.

They are updating the website today, so some info may be temporarily missing.

I went to buy it last night but it was already gone. Should have grabbed when I first saw it.
