or is this a little high?

Granted, I'm not expert, but it seems a little on the high end. But please correct me if this is in line with market now. Thanks.

    no, that's really not high at all. about right i'd say for a pair of Mon 5's. esp if you can talk the seller down a few bucks.. then it's an even better deal. ;)

    Those are Monitor 5 Jr.+. sl2000 tweeter; 6.5" driver; 6.5" passive. Condition is key which is never mentioned in a Craigslists ad :rolleyes: . But even for average condition that's a pretty good price especially if you don't have to pay for shipping.

    Me too, Waukesha isn't that far from me, less than an hour. I don't need them however.

    I'm sorry, but anything 35+ is "old", so if you fit in this column, yes, you are old.
