Hey,

Just giving a heads up if anyone is interested in a pair of M12's in Plymouth, Michigan. I bought a CSi40 and a pair of FXi50's off the guy. He also had the M12's but I had no where to use or put them so I passed. Not sure what he would let them go for, but they looked to be in pretty decent shape, just really dusty from sitting in storage. I didn't hear them either as nothing was setup. Will try and find the link when I get a chance, but for now its off to a new years party:)

Happy New Year!

Jerry

    There's the link if anyone is interested. He no longer has the CSi40 or the FXi50's in the picture... I do:) Anybody have any idea what they are worth? How much power would you need to run them adequately? They had a big 12 inch woofer in them with 4 6-1/2 and a tweeter. Is the 12 inch passive or active?

    The 12" is passive.

    I'd pay $150 for a really nice pair. :)

    Is that really all they are worth? Are they not as desireable a speaker as their smaller siblings?

    I'd pay $200 for them. They're said to be boomy.

    I'd rather have a Monitor 10. The 12 is sloppy.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
