    Looks like the tweeters, top one on each speaker has been replaced. From the looks of the surroundings he may be strapped for cash. He did not have them inside the house they were probably in the garage reason be brought them out for pictures. I would offer him $975, with a mandatory test audition.

    Oh yeah, $1500. is a very "hopeful" amount on the sellers part, I would offer $900. if they were close enough for an audition, no more than the $1000. total.

    I messaged him about the difference in the tweeters and he responded:

    Don't know this is how I bought them. I believe tweeters are the same except a couple tweeters have black coating that is gone.

    I'm just guessing as the buyer was from springs.
    If these are indeed mine, the buyer upgraded tweeters and crossovers.
    Mine had gold tweeters.
    He didn't take diy ic cable so the one he's selling also must be another diy.
    They need a lot of space to sound good and lack of that is why I sold them.
    Check my old thread for more information.
    There were some cosmetic issues.

    SDA CRS not sure if B/B or P/B, I'm guessing B/B considering where the SDA cable outlet is, if so then it's a question if these are single tweeter or double, but they do come with the stands...

    Overpriced and looks like dual tweeter version???
    Isn't this shining thing on the top right a tweeter?

    If I was still visiting friend's in Missouri I might even drive over and get those.
    They certainly are in pristine condition.
    I wonder what they would cost to crate and ship to Los Angeles?
