Vintage Monitor and SDA Speaker Deals

^^ Not treated very well, but if they're functional - those look to be a good deal ^^
Maybe a smokers pair. A reduction to 500 or lower maybe. 3 torn drivers, ouch.
Then a trip to Johann's crafts for grill cloth material and a bottle of 409 cleaner from the grocery store.
409 dissolves nicotine almost instantly. I've used it many times on speakers and receivers. Get the scented 409, it makes the messy clean-up smell a bit easier to bare.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Nice speaks, especially at that price. Always kills me when they can't take a minute to dust them off before posting though... -
I've thought the same exact thing. They might not own any spray cleaner.
And how busy can somebody be to not want to take the time to clean items for pictures. I also think, what does the rest of their environment look like ? !Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Will do.
They are going into a spare room that was my wife's and is becoming a den now. She wants the TV from my stereo room for it, I said sure as long as I can put a two channel stereo in it too.
They should be hooked up by mid afternoon.

Does she know how BIG the speakers are?
Yes she does. I have 2.3's that she was expecting me to put in that room, hopefully it will be awhile before she notices the 2.3's are still in my stereo room and I acquired more BIG speakers and had a complete stereo system here to go with them. Both of those rooms are downstairs, her knees bother her, odds are she probably won't notice for a few months. She is working tomorrow so she won't see them arrive.

My Blunder !
I tried to copy your name and I was afraid to delete any more of the quote thingies.
Maybe I can go back and edit it now. Nope, can't edit it now.
I'll do that process different next time for sure.
I own some Adcom amps and saw your collection of them.
I own SDA-SRS2's and saw your collection of the BIG boys.
I was just GOD smacked that somebody has so much set-up so darn well!
Impressive. Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Congrats @TNTsTunes on the SRS 2's!!
Heck any decent pair of SRS's for $200ish absolutely!!
I myself lucked out about a year and a half ago with my first pair of large polks a pin/blade pair of SRS2's for $200. I love them.... Hope you enjoy them!!
