    If you want that day trip, I can check 'em out this weekend and meet you with them in Cherokee, NC some weekend soon. :-)

    Enabler!!!! If this goes down, I wouldn't be able to grab them till September... Working 7 days a week till then, but I'll front you the cash and some extra to hold them/your troubles.

    Then again they could be trashed, but maybe not.

    Thank you for the front and extra offer. No extra needed. I'll let you know if/when I get them.
    Karma already perhaps as I picked up an Adcom 545 MkII in excellent condition for $100 today. :wink:
    Seller of the RTA 12s didn't respond with when we could meet this weekend or today. I'll try again weekend after next when nearby again.

    Ok, So I just picked these up off of Offerup. Sad thing is the guy that had them does house clean out and recovery (so either abandoned properties or tenants that move out and leave everything behind to be cleaned up). Apparently he picked them up out of an abandoned house he was paid to clean out!!!!!! Why am I not so lucky!!!!!

    Well he got them for free but he was asking $400 for them. The lowest he would go without telling me to walk was $360.00. So I bought them........

    Cabinets are dry and need some TLC with the Oak veneer in a couple of places peeling back. Cloth covers and side panels look decent and the drivers are in great shape. Didn't have the interconnect cable (so that was my sticking point to get him to go down in price).

    Here are some pics....

    Ok Now just a pair of CRS's then I'm done!!! I swear!! ;)

    You need to take up a part time hobbie of cleaning out abandoned houses like the guy I bought them from when he found them free!!!
    That's the guy that really sucks!! :p

    too high

    Yup, 80 would be more appropriate for the JRs and 120 max for the CRS.

    I'd def. get the RDO194 Monitor 10's! That's a great set for 150.00! Then again, I just went back and read the description. It looks like the seller is hiding the swelling with the sales manual and doesn't provide a picture of the swelling.

    So today I missed out on a smoking deal. On CL a guy offered up a pair of "4ft Polk speakers". The pictures show a very nice set of SRS2's. 50 bucks! I emailed the guy 3 times over the past 12 hours, finally responded that they were sold. No kidding. Dang. I'm sad.
