    Found 1 grille badge. I'll email my bud at Bowers and Wilkins on Monday, see if I can't get another.

    Sure, I can take some pictures, probably be late tonight.

    Sid,

    I mean no offense but put me squarely in the camp that is growing increasingly tired of you feeling the need to throw your.02 on every friggin' post on the forum.

    It's like the pictures from the Polkfest, Christ, we get it, ok?

    Just tone it down a bit, ok?

    I have a set of nearly new Polk LSi7s in Ebony. They might have 5 hours of use on them. Extremely good speakers, just ask anyone on the forum.

    Asking $375 + shipping for them. I'm asking $400 for them on this site:

    Let me know.

    I've got a pair of B&W DM 602 S2. They are the cherry cabinet with black speaker covers. Very nice never abused. I paid 599.98 plus tax for the pair and I use them for stereo. I have a Bose AM15 for my home theater system.

    I am not really wanting to sell them, but if offered enough I might consider it. I want to upgrade my home theater speaker system to an all B&W, but the price will be somewhere in the 3000 dollar plus range if I buy new.
