Near mint. I am the 3rd owner.

These speakers are extremely well made with 1 inch thick front baffles and 4 internal braces. The woofers have rubber surrounds so you don’t have to worry about foam rot like you do with other speakers. These originally sold for $1600 per pair, so $300 obo is an extraordinary deal for audiophile speakers of this quality, in this condition.

You are welcome to audition the speakers here in my home . I am located in north Salem, Oregon just a minute off the freeway and very easy to find. Local pick up and cash only.

Thanks!

    Nice price. They look like they're in excellent condition too.

    I'd like to try some LS90's eventually, but my funds are tied up in a couple other ventures currently. Good luck with the sale.

    Those things are beasts! I didn't realize that they were that big!

    Thanks for the encouragement :)

    They are a hair over 40" high, but for some reason those pics make them look larger than they actually are.

    Yep I have a pair just like those and no way would I sell for $300, somebody grab these you will not regret it, some of Polk's best, and for a measly 300 you cant go wrong. Good luck!

    Who is the lucky new owner!?

    I have had several sets of LS-90 and love them. The new owner will surely feel the same. I think.

    The deals that can be had, and the performance at a reasonable cost, by those that are not afraid to hunt down the older generations of Polk products from ten years ago, or thereabouts. The product page looks very promising for these.

    Congratulations to the new owner!
    Alea jacta est!

    Hi Dave,

    The new owner is a local guy who saw my ad on craigslist. He already had a pair of LS90s (as well as a few other Polk models) and will be using "my" LS90s in a 7.1 surround sound setup he is putting together.

    I have a set of LS90s in mint condition (in original box), CS350 center, and M3surround that I'm looking to sell on eBay. I have the original paper work and reviews to accompany. Unfortunately, my wife is not a fan of the large speakers. I was hoping to get an idea of what they might sell for. I originally purchased for $2300 and thought I might be able to get $500-$660 as a set. Any thoughts?
