  You shut your mouth!
  
  Any luck on those 90s? Those 5s are a good deal too.

  I wanted to buy the 90's to part them out but there wasn't too much interest.

  Looks like the one on the right is missing the "diffraction spoiler" above the tweeter.

  At a hundred dollars that would probably be a nonissue for most.

  Yeah, saw that yesterday. I actually called the seller last week and chatted with him for a few minutes. I had no intentions to buy, but just wanted to get his thoughts on them. Nice guy, inherited them from his dad. He said he needed the cash and as long as the ad was up, they were available. Said he had a lot of interest in them, but no one was serious. I saw the ad was deleted yesterday, so they must have sold. I agree... hope someone around here got them.

  For those that can snag these, this looks like a pretty good deal. They might not show up on people's radar as there is no mention of "SDA" in the ad.
  
  $620 for a pair of 2.3TLs that look to be in excellent condition. No affiliation. If I didn't have 3.1TLs I might be tempted.

  I wonder if the Cb's are also included on that price? If i lived closer, i would sell my 3.1's for them if they work properly.
