Hi all,

I need help with the model of these Monitor 7’s. I believe these are series 1 but I’m not positive. Just picked these up recently and they sound amazing! Any info would be appreciated.

    Nice pair of 7s, noob! Where did you make the score? Those are getting less common every day.

    7B's for sure. I've got 3 pairs of 7's and these are my favorite, although my series 2 with the sl2500 tweeters are not far behind.

    You started right if that is your 1st set of Polks. Those are awesome. Great find and in excellent condition it seems. Lock Tite (glue) the magnets before you loose your investment. Less you got one of these hanging around there somewhere...jcr6y6819t77.jpg
