I have a couple of low end speakers that I thought I'd offer here even though there's a slim chance there will be any interest.

Optimus Pro CS-5 center channel speaker. Excellent shape
Optimus Dipole speakers. no model # as they came as part of a sub/sat system. Pretty scratched up, too. They are about 6" tall and kind of triangular in shape. Probably weigh about 5-7lbs each.

Also, I have some very nice Green Bay Packers jackets and sweatshirts. There are 3 pullover jackets/windbreakers and 2 sweatshirts. They are several years old, but all are in excellent shape. I probably haven't worn any of these more than 5 times.

Shipping will be from 75056 if you'd like to get a quote.

    God I wish I had some extra money for shipping!!

    Life-time Packers fan here (got it from my dad and his dad), and I really need to expand my Packers clothing selection!

    If you get bored and feel like shipping 1 or all of the clothes to 97128, let me know!

    Probably should ask what size are the Packers clothes?

    sometime next summer... and no, a Viking would rather commit suicide than wear anything yellow/green, much less something that says Packers on it:)

    I don't know and the labels are long gone. They sound very good. If I pull a driver, would anyone here know from the model number?

    You really don't need to pull the driver, the LX-5 is fairly unmistakable due to the "domed" top where the Di-Pole Linaeum tweeters sit. (and has a 5" woofer) If you could upload a picture anyone familiar with the speaker can recognize it. As far as I know the LX-4 is a Mono-pole set up and does not have the good tweeter, (and has 4" woofer)

    I won't argue with you on it, but I don't want someone to buy an LX-4 setup thinking they're going to get the Dipoles either. The LX-4 and LX-7 came with mono-pole tweeters the LX-5, LX-8 as well as the Floor Standing LX-10 all had the Dipole.
    I know the Linnaeum tweeter was available as a stand alone unit sold as the Optimus Dipole Tweeter (part 40-1389) maybe someone added it to the LX-4 you saw?

    Here is the parts list for the LX-4

    I bought them new from Rat Shack, with Linaeum tweeter. It was the only reason I would buy a pair of those.

    I sold them to the man who runs AudioKarma quite some time ago.

    Don't know what to say to that George, LX-4 were compacts. My brother worked for Radio Shack all through the 90's and I never saw a LX-4 with the dipole tweeters, didn't think they would even fit on them. Here is another source that disputes this. http://www.stereophile.com/budgetcomponents/695ratshack/#

    I'm wondering if there is a possibility that you had the LX-5 with the wrong label on it.
    I'm not spoiling for an argument, lol just trying to figure this out is all.

    I owned the LX-5's and later the stand alone Optimus Dipole Tweeters (brother's discounts 'ya know or I wouldn't have bought the LX-5s at all) there were a lot better speakers around for the money, but we took the tweeters off the LX-5 and mounted them on other speakers. Then Radio Shack started selling the Optimus Dipole Tweeter as a Stand Alone Component and once word got out they quickly sold out of them.

    Dave, this is a picture of the Tweeter, it would be sitting on the top of your speakers if it is one of the models referred to. http://cgi.ebay.com/Pair-Linaeum-Add-On-Dipole-Audio-Tweeters-Optimus-NIB_W0QQitemZ390157507681QQcmdZViewItemQQptZSpeakers_Subwoofers?hash=item5ad7331c61

    These do not have the Linaeum tweeters.

    I don't know about the rest of the back-n-forth on the LX-4 and 5's, but if I had to bet on someone's memory, it would be George's...

    The ones Dave got are a pair from a Sat/Sub system. I don't really think they have an individual model number, but rather a model number that would identify the Sat/Sub system.

    I don't have any other speakers. I do still have the center channel and the LX5, but they are no longer in working order. Would probably cost more to fix them than they're worth.
