real quickly if at all possible, can anyone give me their take on these. i pointed them out in the deal of the day thread as well. i'm suppose to go listen to them in a few hours. ran some searches here and on google and came up with oodles of info for the 10's, but these are the 20's. i'm just looking for quickie opinions. $250 ain't bad and i can flip them for more in the future, if i so choose. at least from what i've gathered thus far.

thanks all.

i caught that thread face. so basically, something to pass on? for the price i thought maybe it was worth looking into.

I wasn't much of a fan. They didn't sound bad, just didn't do anything for me.

It can't hurt to check them out and get a demo, and as you mentioned, it's not a bad price.

well, i'm thinking money would be best spent on a 'family' of sda's vs broadening my horizons. ocd does that to ya. i may still go check them out. but it's sorta outta my way. and i don't really need them. but i'm a sucker for a good price.

i went and saw them and i'd personally rate them a 4/10 condition-wise. but they sounded pretty clean. i told him no thanks. he offered to sell for $200. to that i said no. then he said, okay, $150? i passed. it'd take more of my time and effort and turn into a $500 set. so no thank you.

Wow, I would have taken them in a heartbeat! I have never heard 20s, but the 10s that I demoed sounded really nice.

yeah, but i'm one of those narcissistic folk and i'm shallow and materialistic and everything revolves around looks.
