    Finding these at this price makes we want to cry (because I dont have any kind of money for them :sad:)

    http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/ele/2812572640.html

    As an FYI, I believe you can purchase different colored socks for these.

    I would be happy to audition them if someone here was interested in them.

    What would you think of this ad?

    http://keys.craigslist.org/ele/2815785128.html

    "Tons of high end speakers, amps, and home theater equipment. Everything has to go. Magnapan, B&K, Parasound, Monitor Audio, NHT, Kef,
    Sofia electromics, etc. No resonable offer refused. Save big. "

    I'm familiar now with Parasound, but how are the other brands?


    We have one small store that is supposed to be Home Theater, but it is mainly just some TV's and stuff, not really high end so I'm thinking it must be someone selling his gear.

    I replied for more information, but haven't heard back.

    I would like to know the opinion of folks here on this local guys list of things he is selling. I listened to them and they all sound great, but it was hard to give a real audition as it was a tiny room filled with speakers surrounding his bed. I'll tell you about that in a second, but this is what he has:

    "The B&K st 140 $100
    Sofia Electric "Baby" tube amp $200
    Magnapan MMG $150
    Moniter Audio Silver RX2 $150
    Celestion SL6S $150
    Kef C75 $150
    NHT SUPER ONE $100
    Siesta Lab SE BS $100

    I've got an integra amp that sounds as good as the B&K its 105 watts per solid state too. $100
    Crown CT 210 150 watts per $100"


    I have the equipment listed below in my signature, but I am about to get a Marantz that the the owner said at first he thought it was a quad, but now says it has tubes. I want to venture into a 2 channel setup in another room which will be much smaller than the one I have now. I am using all my gear now as a combo HT and music space. Is any of the above gear good for the price? I liked the Magnapans as they might be mountable. I couldn't really get a soundstage from them because he had them facing each other on across his bed.

    I was going to get an external amp anyway to drive my four outside speakers, two are 8ohm and two are 4omh, about 170 watts handling total for the outside speakers.

    I don't need a center channel speaker. I might try a 'presense' speaker as my yamaha is set up to do that. I also have two cube speakers as rear channel, and book shelf for surround sides.

    I don't want to lose out on a good deal but don't want to throw money away either.

    So here is the story: it's the craziest audition ever, totally a Key West experience! Here's the ad from Craigslist:

    AUDIOPHILE BONANZA - $100 (Key West)

    Date: 2012-01-24, 12:53PM EST
    Reply to: sale-pv43d-2815785128@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]

    Tons of high end speakers, amps, and home theater equipment. Everything has to go. Magnapan, B&K, Parasound, Monitor Audio, NHT, Kef,
    Sofia electromics, etc. No resonable offer refused. Save big.



    I emailed the guy, got his address, went there and went to the rear per instructions, and thought I had to be in the wrong place. It was a room off the back of the house, but it was in a shed. If you have seen Trailer Park Boys show, it's Bubble's shed. There was trash filled bags, stinky of course, and a bucket of eaten bones, assorted rusty crap, dead plants, and the shed/room was shanty but had this nice deadbolt on a door that probably was never sealed in anyway. I knocked, and finally the guy came out looking typically homeless but had some teeth left.
    The room inside was just big enough for a twins sized bed, and speakers. Nothing else. It was probably about 8 feet long and 6 feet wide. Inside were piled on top of each other about a dozen pairs of nice speakers, a small desk with a tv on top and several small subwoofers underneath. He had a receiver, many amps, a speaker selecting component, and tons of other electronic speaker and audio equipment. None of it looked cheap, and they were all in pristine condition. That makes sense because it would be hard to even touch them as they were a wall of speakers and amps.
    I finally asked the guy why he was selling some of his stuff, and he said he just got into being an audiophile and wanted to get some more gear. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, and hearing. He put on some various tunes, and it all sounded so good. Here I was in a rat infested shanty shack with this guy you wouldn't think had a pot to piss in, and I was enveloped with great music from all these speakers I had never heard. Most of the speakers were somewhat aligned with the exception of the magnapans.

    As I spoke with him, he really knew his stuff. Before entering I thought I might have stumbled upon a thief quickly selling stolen gear, but this is clearly not the case. He might have gone broke with audiophilia, or he may just be a retired guy with low cash reserves that loves audio. His lcd tv was stuck with a green tone, so it was obvious that he was not into HT, just audio.

    Obviously no wife, as there is no room for a wife or even a hamster in that room.

    He was selling other gear not listed above, such as the parasound 1500a preamp. I have the parasound 1500a amp, so although it makes sense to put it together, I am using my yamaha as the main receiver.

    Anyway, what do you guys think about the gear or prices? I just realized this isn't the right thread necessarily for these questions so I'll make a new thread.

    Five speaker Mirage setup in excellent shape -- $160 asking price -- in Frederick, MD.

    Here's the craigslist ad:
    http://frederick.craigslist.org/ele/2813779867.html -- sub is sold, and the asking price on the other five speakers is down to $160.

    Includes huge Mirage M-70 tower speakers, a Mirage MC-SI center channel and two Mirage M-190i bookshelf speakers as rears.

    I was up there on Saturday and bought the subwoofer off of him. The stuff is in excellent shape. It belonged to his wife, from her first marriage, so he has no attachment to it. He replaced the whole setup with brand new Polk speakers that look great.

    Very nice guy; also had an Onkyo TX-SR705 receiver he was asking $150 for, but was flexible. Everything appeared to be in excellent shape. If I'd had room for any of the speakers, I would have brought them home--I just don't have room for floorstanding speakers at this point (so sad).

    Five speaker Polk setup, Washington DC area craigslist:
    two LSi15 towers, two F/X300i surrounds, one CS350LS center. Asking price of $900 for the system.

    A good deal for the money? Seems like a pretty good price, but I don't keep up well on used Polk pricing.

    GREAT DEAL! Now the center is NOT the correct one, but you could sell that off to get the LSiC and still be waaaaayyy under the going rate for the entire setup

    The LSi15's are going for 850 by themselves on Polks ebay site.

    Decent BIN price,but I thought the shipping charge of $25.00 is a bit steep. One thing I've noticed more and more on fleabay is the higher shipping charges people are charging nowadays.
