      Don't look now but Frankenpolk is back. This time his victim is a pair of monitor 7's, although he claims they are monitor 10's. Oh the humanity!xzb3t2ievfdj.jpghttps://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/ele/d/vintage-polk-audio-speakers/6730175526.html

      The thought of someone drilling thru a Peerless tweeter on an early/original Monitor 7 (which has been on my wish list for a long time) is indescribable. And he couldn't even get the tweeter centered!

      You really didn't have to post this one............

      There is no “annoyed” button, so I chose lol instead. Hate to see that.

      Really?
      You could buy the speakers, sell the tweeters then pick up a pair of Peerless tweets...

      Radioshack super tweeters were stand alone units you could put on top of a speaker.

      If they really go for $100 this idiot ruined 2 pairs of speakers!

      Yes they were but you could take the stand off and put them in speakers. I bought a dozen of them back in the day. They cost 10.00 ea. new back in the 80's and after watching sell for ungodly prices i wished i had a case of them.

      Correct Brian and yes they were very good for the price. Most of the time i would set them on top of my speakers and face them to the rear to reflect off the wall. I was never disappointed in their performance back in the day... today might be a different story

      We had a pair of RTA-12's here in Wilm. NC. a few years back on Craigs list. The owner had a bunch of speakers that he wanted to clear out fast. He wanted 200.00 for the RTA-12's. :)

      And I had no spare change and didn't want to touch my 401K yet. It was a tough week for me. :'(

      I didn't even go the 3 miles to see what else he had...that hurt to not have some spare $.
