Hey guys this is in my neck of the woods:
http://charlotte.craigslist.org/ele/1546507697.html
I'm not seriously interested since I already have 2's and RTA-12's and I don't know where I'd put them if I were. But I thought I'd ask about what you think about the price and I know I've been reading here about the 1's being better than the 2's so I'd like an opinion. Are these 1C's ? Thanks.

    What about the price Pycroft? Also I know it's irksome to answer the same q. over and over but the IC cable's missing on this one and may I ask if it's possible to make one. If I remember the blade-blade (is this one of those?) can be duplicated?

    Mine came with a home made cable, and I hear it's easy to make. Regardign the price, I paid 275 for mine, and they are not cosmetically beautiful. I think 350, if they are in good shape, is a very good price. Hopefully others will chime in.

    That is a great deal and in my neck of the woods as well. I already have a pair.
    Nice speakers and the fact they don't have an IC cable is not that big of a deal if you ask me.

    I would be the closest member to these speakers on the forum. They are basically in my backyard. LMK if I can help.

    I want! I Want! Oh wait, they're 3,500 miles away; eh, oh well. next time.

    Not having the IC is no big deal. You can get aftermarket ones made for sub $50.

    You won't find a better speaker for that price. Replace those 2's and you'll be happy. Guaranteed.

    Nice.
    ...if they were in my neck of the woods....mint and with original boxes?

    Because of the lack of the interconnect, the guy has no idea what he is missing.
