    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    Local mom & pop stereo shop has now started selling used equipment, most of it is lower or mid range. They do, however, have a pair of Magnepan 1.6/QR speakers on consignment. I know nothing about Maggies, but know there's quite a following here.

    They didn't pull them out or hook them up, but said they would. Apparently, the owner sold them once for $650 and the buyer returned them saying one didn't sound right. They, however, claim they both work and sound fine.

    They told me they'd sell them for $400. I'd gladly help out if anyone wanted me to audition them or take some pictures for them. That seems like a killer deal if they are working. Like I said, I know nothing about these type speakers, but if someone is interested and told me what to look for, I could help out. Just PM me!

    These are very tempting. How can you tell from the picture they are 1.2TL's and not 1.2's?

    They kinda have goldish reflection in pictures at times, but the domes are clearly black.

    Not bad, but its all composite & S-video.... I'd pass on the PJ, the AVR may work if you use optical to your AVR.

    Here are 4 RT55s and a CS1000p. In Cincinnati. Kinda rough shape it appears but the price is "make an offer." No affiliation. If I was closer I think I'd do it.

    Wonder what center channel that is..... Looks like it might be the CS1000 which is a really good center...
