    3 hours 45 min I'd gladly drive IF I had the room for them...... and the cash of course. I'm not sure what I have tax wise this year. Still waiting to hear back from the CPA. Hopefully a refund again. Alimony has it's silver linings.

    Thanks for posting the info of the monitor 11's @lawdogg.

    No problem - I only know because I am tempted every time they come back up. If they come back much more I dunno if I'll be able to resist.

    So they are two-tweeter Blade/Blade CRS (+ 3rd gen early I assume?) Not great for upgrades, but should make a hella speaker for the system I'm putting together for my son? Thoughts?

    . Very Good deal for those if everything is in order. I cant tell you how they compare to 11's. Way better than the 8's i had. Very flexible speaker with different selection of music. Placement is better if you have the space-as there is a rear passive also.

    If those 1.2's were near me, and they started with 1.2 tl I would grab them, even at that price. After all, they are already fully modded. The only thing they are missing is The Fortress/Abbot crossovers. And he did do them with the right components already.

    You can upgrade 1.2's to 1.2tl's

    I believe Polk even sold TL kits for the 1.2's back in the day, it even came with the extra wooden brace you had to glue in the cabinet behind the PR..

    They are Larry's Rings and he did mention this here forum. The dude is from Texas, Man they are big and a lot more cash could be thrown at them. Adding 8 tweeters minimally then the other incidentals plus shipping those suckers. No wonder they have been passed from family member to C/L. Question, is this the model w/ that back brace thing ??
