    I'm glad @VSAT88 got these before I even saw this post. Mt. Juliet is like 30 min away from me. Congrats!

    Hmmmmmmmm.....the ONLY problem I have is, WTF would I do with them??

    The Bozaks and the Amazings take up a TON of real estate.....and I'm having Sid build a sick set of crossovers for the Bozaks.

    I've heard the SRTs. I LOVE the SRT's but they are far better suited to HT and, man, I just dunno.....

    I've always been intrigued by those ^^ speakers and would love to hear them, with all the mods especially. I looked at the sellers crossover photo and it looks like they have a 33uF electrolytic in there for the low pass cap and if I'm not mistaken it has a dent in it. Beware of that issue.

    Same here!
    All I ever got was a pair of cat-pissed Monitor 10s, and that's probably one of the better offerings in this area.

    I'm loosely interested in a pair of CRS+ if anyone happens across any. Preferably without the aforementioned modification.
    I disabled signatures.

    I am!

    Thinking about the CRS's pin/blade, Monitor 10's with NIB factory stands, 1C's Oak, 5JR's, Acoustat Spectra 11's, and some components as well. Mostly Verb minty fresh condition. Just need to clean up the basement a bit, getting crowded, as my journey has been so fast and furious I would not spend the time on any of these babies before I leapfrogged to the next step. So here they all sit, not getting the love they deserve.

    Time to share the love!

    I'm very happy with the L800's thus far, and plan to do an upgrade path eventually on the SRS 1.2 Tl's, some day!

    Local pickup on the speakers is best (SE Michigan), shoot me a PM. If travelling a bit further, I'll make it worth your while! Maybe even a "Legendary" type deal! I'm inspired with what @xsmi just offered! :smile:

    And yes, a separate posting is forthcoming!

    Good lord yes. With the factory stands . When they still have those original cardboard pieces under the grill and the interconnect you know you got something there. Hope someone here gets those.
