I posted this in the Flea Market - FS section, but I decided to move it. I'm not sure if this type of "referral" is allowed in the FM or not. :cool:

Just happened to see these this morning on Audiogon.

    I fixed it. When I copied and pasted the message from where I first posted it in the FS area, the link got messed up.:eek:

    Out of curiosity... what's their sensitivity?
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Yup.... let's cross our fingers on this one. Looks like the Silverlines might need a new home. I just couldn't pass this up. Plus the maple is (and always will be) the preferred finish...

    Keep us updated...

    I bet those things are absolutely awesome in 2 channel.

    You know what I really noticed about the Tylers over other speakers Ive owned. The fact you don't have to really have them loud to get their full potentials and all the detail. At a modest volume, you are totally entranced in the music.

    Got here lickety-split....
    though it looks like FedEx had a way with one of the boxes. You can imagine my terror at seeing a Tyler for the first time through a large, gaping hole. They actually managed to find the area where the side foam insert did not connect with the top foam insert. Either way, it looks like the speaker made it unscathed.

    And wouldn't you know it.... my wife's pink Polaroid (and currently the house camera) has gone kaput. I guess the shame of it being pink was too much for it to go on in this world. If I can't get it up and running, I'll borrow someone's. These things are GORGEOUS.
