Hey guys, I found some RTA-11ts at a pawn shop today, Great condition, with original boxes and everything. Price tag on em was 350, got em down to 250 but was lookin to spend under 200. Is 250 a reasonable price or should I keep looking? Also, i don't REALLY need em, but it never hurts to have more polks :)
Also, I think I remember something hearing about a TL series, how would I tell the difference? The tweets looked like sl2000s Thanks guys!

    $150-$200 in great to excellent condition.
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    I'd agree that $250 is a bit high unless they are mint. And I mean minty mint.

    Keep looking.

    HUH :confused: What does this have to do with the OP's question?
    And BTW, you can't just swap SL3000's for SL1000's without modifying the Crossovers and the baffle.

    I think $250 is high, $200 is better...especially in this economy.
