    I don't see the stands mentioned. Nice condition though.

    They're elusive, LOL.

    Something is holding them at that angle... or they're just levitating like David Blaine!

    Just today central Jersey C/L.. These look so good if I had the room I would move on them. Firm also not in ad. CRS set for $200 w/ blade/blade ic and stands. Knowing what I've heard here over the years the stands are worth that. They are the single vertical mount tweeter from '84.

    5 Jrs with stands. Asking $60. No affiliation.
    They have SL1000s unfortunately but the stands alone might be worth that if original.
    Good news is that drop-in replacements for the SL1000s are available here.
    I'm within 20 miles of them for the next two days if anyone wants me to facilitate or check them out. After that headed back to metro Atlanta, in case a Polkie there wants them.

    Here is one for the Philadelphia region. Monitor 10's (probably B's) with cheap stands.......$70.

    I would have to look under the grills but the price is right.

    Just picked up a pair of SDA 1C (Studio's). Original owner with the interconnect cable. Only had minor dings with the only real issue being the particle board base on one is pretty trashed. Already pulled both off and will be making and replacing them with solid wood bases....

    Can I post a link here for vintage Polks that I am regretfully selling or is that against the rules (I see most links here are "no affiliation")?

    Too soon. You need 100 posts to give us a feel of your personality maybe.
    Let us get to know who you are and what your audio interests are if you have any.

    Your selling speakers huh? Go to the speaker thread or Club house thread and post what's going on and why you need to unload some Polks from your life. Are you going wireless or headphones or is it secret?
