    wtf? 1800 dollar speakers for 200? I'm not getting them, but what do you think?

    In any event, I have been very satisfied with my Jamo Sub-300 subwoofer. I have heard tons of good things about Jamo, and almost bought some towers a while back.

    Not sure how good of a deal this is, but considering I read somewhere that the retail for these was $300 in the 70's, maybe someone will have interest for them. Free shipping too!

    It's official. There are no deals in Indy besides people selling their Monitor series speakers at full retail prices, or people selling Monitor 5s for $300.

    Sorry.

    These actually aren't bad as far as older Infinity towers go...

    $150 for a pair of SM152s. Loud as hell, and don't sound that bad.

    No, sadly... there was a model back then that i think had ribbon tweets, and they were pretty nifty.

    What you're seeing is control knobs... they had a funky built in bass and treble adjustment i think.

    The price isn't bad at all... i sold my old SM115s for $100, and they weren't half the speaker these are. They're big heavy beasts that will rock the hell out and sound decent doing so. Think like.... midway point between Cerwin Vegas and Monitor 10s.

    Hahaha... i can see your gears turning.... I think they would sound pretty good on your amp, honestly. If i had the spare money, i'd grab them and we could check it out, since buying at that price isn't too risky. You could make your money back quite easily.

    Here's a thread that goes into modding them in terms of bracing and stuffing. That was one thing that i noticed with some of the SM-series. They resonate a bit.

    Might as well get them! I mean worst case scenario you have to sell your house to pay your speaker debts, but you can always build a house out of speakers so its really a win win situation

    I'd get them if i had room for them.... but i'm stuck with skinny tower speakers. They wouldn't be a huge upgrade for me anyways, just something different.

    Speaking of Infinity's, there's a pair of SM-122's here - http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/1511835676.html

    And one that really caught my eye - http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/1511905395.html

    Guess this is the slightly smaller version, for nearly half the price - http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/ele/1511422648.html

    And a Polk CS400, excellent price imo - http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/ele/1511767581.html

    If someone's interested in the center channel, let me know maybe we can do something about it.

    Nah they can't be-???-they almost look like flat speakers--no depth to the boxes.
