Are these worth the price? https://evansville.craigslist.org/ele/d/tyro-infinity-rs4-speakers/7108961644.html
-
Yes. I can’t see the crack he’s referring to. Look pretty minty. Not sure how difficult/involved crossover rebuild would be. I had some RSIIIb that had multiple crossovers but RSIIIa’s were straightforward iirc. Given what’s going on, I would think you could even negotiate with cash in hand
-
The left speaker's mid-range is cracked around the bottom screw, far away from the driver. Still looks attached, I'd think it's probably only cosmetic.
He managed to take a picture of the wrong speaker, I think. If you open up the full picture you can see it. I'd call $275 a good deal, even if you have to do a bit of resealing work. -
I had the smaller version of these before. Hooked up to a NAD preamp and a TT. It was a spellbinding sound I have been chasing ever since. Good luck.

edit: I forgot to ask my question. So do these have drivers/tweeters all around in every direction? -
Reminds me of Bose.

Those should sound really nice when in good working order. I have a pair of RS5, which look almost identical. I think the RS4 have slightly bigger woofers, and a deeper cabinet.BinKY188_5 wrote: »

I actually did a search for "speaker stands" and that showed up. I need a second set of stands for the future, so I'm always keeping an eye out. I have "include nearby areas" checked in the CL settings, even though that isn't exactly nearby. I did however make a drive to Nashville a couple years back for some speakers.So Hermit, why are you looking at Nashville CL? I noticed those speakers myself, but they are located down in North AL. -

Here is an unusual vintage Standesign 5-shelf rack. This rack is in Schaumburg Illinois for $129 and local pickup only.
I have always liked the cascading model which cascades from top to bottom outward in the listing shown on US Audio Mart below.

Whatever you do, be sure to wedge them into the passenger floorboard for the trip home.I disabled signatures.
