No problem. My post count is low because I have mostly learned from reading and searching. I have owned Polk speakers for 30 years but have only recently found this forum.
Yea no doubt. I have had polks for 25 years and just found this forum about a year ago. It's a great resource to learn and share with fellow audio nuts. I hope I can meet some of the guys in my area some day.HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

No doubt there! I have bought a set of RTA 12's, SDA 3.1tl's, M5jr's and a set of Monitor 12's because of the lot of bad influences.....HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

Se, Welcome to Club Polk. I will say this, I'm not familiar with this specific pair of 2.3tl's. However, If I were close and had that kind of money, for $800, I would've checked those out a long time ago. If they're in better than average shape, this is a heck of a deal!There is a pair of 2.3tl's that have been on CL for more than a month in Buffalo NY. The asking price is $800. Seems like a reasonable price. I know it is a long shot, but is anyone familiar with this pair?2-channelBelles 22A Pre, Emotiva XPA-2 Gen 2, Marantz SA8005, Pro-Ject RPM-10 Turntable, Pro-Ject Phono Box DS3B, Polk Audio Legend L800's, AudioQuest Cable throughout. -

These are listed in New Jersey. Price looks ok but condition might be rough. If I was closer I would take a $100 chance. Looks like fairly early SDA 1's.

Look good but overpriced IMHO. Wonder if they have the SL or RDO tweeters in em.
I would prob pay somewhere in the 1200 dollar range for em."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963) -

Another pair of 1.2's, but are these TL models? Do the 1.2's have SL2000 tweets, or SL3000??? Just curious, no affiliation.

The ebay pair sure look as if they have SL3000's in them, but the serial #'s are listed as 1.2 no TL -

Probably 1B rather than 1C. "Studio" style cabinets in black might be 1Cs, but in brown they're almost certainly 1Bs.
