    I don't think those are TLs, the write up mentions SDA-SRS which are the first rev and those look like SL2000s. $1100 is fair...$1775 on ebay is definitely the top end of their value.

    Neither add says TL. I would ask what connector is on the back. If it has a round hole, and a flat slot(pin blade) they are TL's.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    I emailed the seller and asked for 'photos'. In the photos they have the pin blade interconnect sockets, SL3000 tweets, and appear in fine shape.
    Claims original owner sincer early 90's with no issues.
    Anyone in the Seattle area want to help a brother out and go inspect/hear/rate them for me? I would be willing to let you use them, and tell your friends that they are yours for a while, until I arrange transport to the Portland area.
    I have promised the wife that these would be the final of my Polk purchases. At least for the next foreseeable future.

    If anyone is interested let me know.
    Happy trails,
    Nathan

    Never thought I'd say that either. Now that I've moved into a smaller place I'm in a squeeze here. Too many amplifiers too. Howdy bud!

    He sent me the news. I want to think they went to a good home and they aren't suffering anymore.
    The hunt continues.
