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!!
Anyone have any SL3000 tweets laying around you want to sell??
Left tweet out on the 3.1's. Pulled a 2500 out of my parts 8TL temporarily to check if was the tweeter, loose wiring or crossover. The 2500 is working so it is the tweeter. Just need to find one replacement SL3000?? Thanks
I can't find a pair of 3.1s 'round here to save my life
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!!
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.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

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.

Something does NOT look right about those pics... some kind of weird filter maybe?

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