    Sooner game day special. $550 plus shipping, lower if local (no shipping). If Sooners cover 17.5, then $525 shipped, lower if local. This is brand new, never used and priced lower then Polk's Family and Friends special.

    This is a helluva deal here! I actually considered these, but looks like others are interested. I have a question on this line. If these were used in a 5 or 7 channel setup, I see there are other speakers in the LS line on Polk's site. It looks like they have 3 in-ceiling speakers, a fourth in-ceiling F/X surround, and an in-wall center. Am I missing something, or did they not make an in-wall L/R speaker for mains in a stereo or HT application in the LS line??

    Did Paul or Joey pick these up? If so, congrats on a nice deal!

    If not, someone should snatch these up. Halen's right, there's $1200 worth of speakers he's offering brand new at less than half the price!

    John - that was sort of my question too. I couldn't figure what speaker in the built-in LS line would be appropriate for front L/R speakers. The 700-LS are in-ceiling speakers, and unless your walls were >8" deep, I can't see how they would work since most 'walls' are 3.5" deep (between the drywall)... unless you were planning on installing them in the ceiling in the front of the room - and I can't see that as being the best location for your front L/R speakers. I couldn't find an LS in-wall speaker other than the center (255c-LS). It just seems odd that Polk obviously made center and surround (80F/X-LS) speakers in the LS line, but failed to make an in-wall matching speaker to complete an HT setup!

    Can anyone else offer an explanation? Is there another in-wall speaker (perhaps the RT or RC series) that would 'match' these speakers?

    Hello,

    Yes these are still available. The in walls that I was going to go with are the 265 LS

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Polk-Audio-Refurb-265-LS-3-Way-In-Wall-6-5-LSi-Loudspeaker-EACH-/231719648540

    I did consider using the in-ceilings for in-walls but decided against it, I do not have space restraints behind the wall. The only reason why I am not using these speakers is because I plan on selling my house next year.

    John, if you are going to Skip's and still interested, I will bring the speakers. Bottom line, these must go... ahem..

    Thanks. I received it. Great offer but the price was for members only. I have ethical standards to the group here. Even though it has not sold, I am never desperate enough, even at your great offer. It is above the tree huggers here.

    With that said... I wish you the best luck. I appreciate your offer. If you hang around for a couple months I will take a hundred off what you offered. It's yours.

    Alright. These are no longer for sale. Will install them to complete the Atmos and DTSX setup to woo the home buyers when my house is listed. But again, the Texas housing market is hot right now.

    Can't believe I was going to give away the house on top of the stupid good price I was asking for the speakers. Haha

    Believe me, I was sorely tempted but I need to build the room that I would be using them in first. Hehe.

    Yes, Skip it is. Being and supporting local has its perks. Very fast turn around. Went to Cedia with a Marantz 6010, left Cedia and got the 7010.. Just like that, faster than Jimmy Johns delivery. Haha

    Hey Halen bruh

    I say, sign the ceiling of your media room, that you designed it and it is ATMOS compliant. Increase the value of your house for sale, Picasso.
