    This guy has a bunch of somewhat desireable speakers. Cabinet are usually in great shape. Almost every single one has the original woofer replaced with some incredible piece of garbage. Nothing ever sells. Get a clue buddy!

    Looks like they were beaten with a baseball bat, then thrown down a flight of stairs.
    $T2eC16VHJGoFFvfhhPiMBRrm3pSKHg~~60_57.JPG


    Seller includes "TL" in the title, and clearly they are not the TL version.

    Buy-it-now is "only" $949. I'd pass at $400. Not a very good "audio-investment" (seller's eBay name)
    One passive mid and two active mid-ranges are "frozen" and not working.
    No signs of abuse or being thrown around

    Stop pestering him...:smile: he already has this on the ad... :eek:

    Item condition:
    Used
    “little Rough, need some TLC but solid”

    Wood Base missing on one speaker, both tops also probably need be replaced.
    No interconect cable (see polk forum for solutions), not a big deal.
    One passive mid and two active mid-ranges are "frozen" and not working.
    ...

    That's a lot of TLC...

    Not a bid...a "Best Offer", and since the respondent has only a "12" feedback score, I'm suspecting that it's a shill "offer". Time will tell...

    If they sell for more than $300, I'll be amazed. First Guess: $150--$250--and local so there's no shipping cost.

    Id be tempted if the price wasn't so high. Ive got the wood working skills and I have some experience now realigning magnets. Can these be TL modded?

    They cant be TL'd, BUT he will let them go for 400 bucks or so... I just spoke with him via PMs at Ebay.

    I'm guessing he is firm on the 400 as well? I would consider 250.00, maybe, but I doubt he would go that low. With frozen drivers and that much woodwork I definitely wouldnt go any higher.
