SRS's for $750, need 4 new MWs so $950 total. In Denver. I wish I was in better financial shape at the moment. I'd be posting pictures of my new speakers instead of sharing this great deal. Hope somebody here can grab them and fix them up. @Mystery @Toolfan66

Not me, I'm happy with my 1.2tl's
I talked with the guy he said he own's a set of 1.2tl's as well as a couple sets of CRS's said he loves old polk speakers..
He has a garage full of speakers...
-
I'd consider the SDA-SRS's, but I already have 2 pair in my livingroom. :-) Then again, maybe I need a set for my garage... haha
-
I really see no reason to buy any more vintage Polk speakers.. I might consider the LSiM 705/707's someday but I highly doubt it..
I want a set of Maggie's
Alan, how have you been?? Did you finish your basement? -

Alan, how have you been?? Did you finish your basement?
I've been good, Larry, thanks for asking. Unfortunately, I stalled on my basement project last summer. I just got burned out working a full time job plus doing construction every night. I plan on kicking it into high gear soon though and getting it finished!
It's been a while since I've been on here. Thought I'd pop my head in and say "I'm not dead yet!". haha How have you been? -

I know him and been to his place few times.
I sold him couple of SDA's and also bought few things from him.
He has a very nice setup in his basement home theater.

oops, didn't make the connection! Still looks like a good project pair for the price.

That's fine but nobody answered me w/ the CSR having a vertical tweeter. I thought they were all horizontal and to me that look is much better. I'm guessing a newer generation but it would be nice to know. About the other thing yes side fabric is not to bad if you have ratchet strap clamps when re gluing and since 1 tweeter was already replaced who knows what also lurks there. This would be a listen only buy and not through E-Bay. Mike, project pair, perfect description.....

In your first sentence, if you are referring to the vertical orientation of the single tweeter in the CRS+ for sale posted by tonyp063, it's tweeters are in the correct position. These are the third iteration of the CRS, the first + model with only one tweeter, the 1986 model. The fourth version, the1989 models, are the ones that can be TL'd. Not a bad price @ $199.00, try $150.00.

The fabric is easy to glue back he must have limited funds (1 RDO) make sure the rare 6511's are okay.
He would take $340 through CL cause of the eBay chargesleftwinger57 wrote: »These are the same I showed through the Central Jersey C/L a few post ago. Now he's posting on E-Bay.

Sturdy? Bit spendy IMO. Got mine for $30..
-
You robbed someone blind then. $95 is a fair price for Monitor 5's, I'd think a fair price for 8T's is around $150? There's $300 in drivers (if bought new) alone. afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.
Village Idiot of Club Polk -
There is nothing about the 8T's that make them worth $150 the drivers are not even worth that IMO...
Monitor 7's and 10's are much better suited for the $150 range, much better sounding... -
Saw this among a boat load of other Polk models of every description most in central Jersey
