    See if you can buy just the stands... otherwise resell the SDAs

    This works out to approx 150$ total shipped even with the units boxed by FedEx... Ok, I'm really serious, who's close?

    Polk 10A monitors with Peerless tweeters.....$125. Philadelphia area.

    These were listed at $200 for a while. Didn't post them here because i didn't think that was a "deal". But now at $125 someone should get em. These are IMO the best 10's, the ones with the Polk logo on the wood (not the grill). The pair I have sound great.

    I need a set for my RT5000 system too.

    I've kind of been looking for 13+ years for a rosewood set. :'(

    Another car back seat picture. I can almost start a collage of these speaker hauls that took place in this back seat. :D Thanks again @agfrost!

    He said he was downsizing and was going to do something different music wise. I think they were his and maybe a One owner pair. He said he takes care of his stuff.
    It shows. ;)B)

    I'll test them in about a week or less. Maybe today, it's nice enough outside. 56* and sunny. :)

    I thought they were blade blade. I even looked while at his house.

    Then I get home and go to take pictures and I see that PIN.

    How did that happen? I need glasses! :s

    Nice haul! In the future, remember to transport vintage Polks on their backs to help reduce the chances of shifted magnets.

    I forgot about that picture. :s I skipped it in the sequence and was going to post it in the end. This is what happens as we age I think! :D
    Here they are. No spikes though.

    The ride to get these and back is so smooth, it was like floating there and back. Really nice trips going South. A lot of new pavement. Super quiet too.
