PSB Stratus speakers

PSB Stratus floor-standing speakers in piano black gloss finish. Local pick-up only in Albany, NY. These are the original Stratus model, which was the precursor to the later Stratus Bronze, Silver, and Gold models. This is a great-sounding speaker, very dynamic with a great sound stage and nice bass punch. It really does everything incredibly well. Speakers are in nice condition with perhaps just a few light surface scratches if looked at closely. The only real (to me minor) noticeable issue is that, at some point, one corner wooden edge of the base of one speaker somehow became separated and the previous owner re-attached it (please see last pic). This did not bother me at all and the base is still solid at that point. I am the second owner. I bought these speakers about 5 years ago but never enjoyed them as much as I should have due to space limitations which prevented me from seting up a planned second system.
Price is $400 local pick-up only in Albany, NY.
Sorry that the pics are not the best, I know, due to lack of light in the room. Please let me know if anyone wishes to see other pics and, if so, I can take some more pics during the day in better light and e-mail them to any interested persons. Thank you.

Local pick-up only. These are currently located in Albany, NY, but, beginning on September 9, 2018, they will be located in Amsterdam, NY, as I will be moving them into my shop at that time. Thanks.
These are great speakers for the price. I would keep them myself but, unfortunately, do not have the room for them. I'd also prefer not to have to move them to my shop. Currently located in Albany, NY, and, beginning on September 9, they will be in Amsterdam, NY.
I'd rather not have to move these to my shop in Amsterdam, NY, where they will just stand unused among a few other speakers I have stored there, so I decided to lower the price and hopefully give someone local to Albany, NY, a good deal on a great set of speakers. Thanks.
I know PSB may not be a household name (and I had not heard of the brand myself until I bought these speakers years ago), but they really do make some great sounding and quality speakers.
I lowered the price on my local CL a few days ago and forgot to do so on here.
Local pick up, Albany, NY.
Thanks.
I really don't want to move these, ha.
Albany, NY, local pick-up.
My wife and I are moving soon and I'd prefer that these find a good home rather than have to move them.
I think this is a very good deal for these speakers and it is even a bit less than I paid for them myself a few years ago.

Thanks. These are great speakers and I actually paid quite a bit more for them myself. I would love to keep them but, unfortunately, I do not have room for them in the new townhouse my wife and I moved into a few months ago and I'd just like to pass a good deal along to a fellow Polkie. This deal is only open to PF members with 100+ posts. Local pickup only. Thanks.
$240 local pickup only. Cohoes, NY (near Albany, NY).
These are really great sounding speakers for the price. I paid $300 for these myself approx. 4 years ago and I thought that was a good deal at the time. I would just like to find a good home for these since I only have space for one pair of speakers at my new townhouse (and the SDA 2B TLs are staying).
Thanks. These are great speakers and, imho, a great deal for $240. I wish I could keep them for a second system but I just don't have the room in my townhouse.
Local pickup only in Albany, NY, area.
Thanks.
Also, I did notice a few minor surface scratches to the black gloss finish, mainly on the tops, but that is normal for that type of finish and they are in good shape overall and work perfectly. I do not think you'll find a better sounding pair of speakers for the price.
$200, cash and carry, local pickup only in Amsterdam, NY (zip code 12010).

Aren't there any Polkies near upsate NY who can use a great pair of speakers at a bargain price? $200 local pickup in Amsterdam, NY. They are currently in my shop and I can hook them up to the Parasound amp and pre I have there if anyone even wants to hear how they sound.
Thanks.
$200, local pickup only in upstate NY (Amsterdam/Albany areas).
As noted in my previous post, I also listed these on CL (at a higher price) back in December but, due to the typical CL bs ("I'll give you $75 for them," multiple e-mails from people promising to stop by and check out the speakers only to bail at last minute, etc.), I removed these from CL a few weeks ago and will only list them on this forum. I will just keep them if they do not sell on here.
These are great speakers at a bargain price for any Polkies near upstate NY.
Thanks.
