    I have no idea. I’ll have to ask the owner for dimensions of the box and weight.

    I found details about the speaker itself. Packaging I think will not add much to it:
    * Height: 18.75 inches (47.6 cm)
    * Width: 16.25 inches (41.3 cm)
    * Depth: 16.5 inches (41.9 cm)
    * The weight is approximately 50 pounds (22.7 kg).

    FedEx says $129! I added 2 inches all around and 10 pounds for the box.

    Are you sure about the height? One the pics seems to show the height as around 29 inches. That extra 10 inches adds about $50!

    Yeah, you're absolutely right. I have to pass. The delivery cost way too much for the experiment to hold the speaker w/o knowing I would utilize it. I appreciate you taking the time to think about the opportunity.

    That’s some interesting Polk history right there. First I’ve heard of the LF14, that I recall. Looks like a great score for the serious Polk collector.

    Still haven't heard anything back from the seller so not even sure this is real.

    Thank you, I appreciate your help. I will pass cuz yesterday, I committed to another pair of speakers, and in order to get it I have to buy a full 5.1 HT...

    Maybe somebody else here will be interested, cuz $86 for shipping is pretty good.

    What're the gaps above and below where the MWs meet in the middle? Looks like the front of the cabinet between has been cut out.
    Expect that there will be bumps in the road. Choose to not let them rattle you.

    7c’s too big for this you think? I’m only pushing 45 wpc with my Yamaha amp (which frankly is fine as I don’t want/need to blow the windows out).

    As always it all depends on your preference, your room, etc. In my setup 7c are in the garage on a top shelf, but for RTA12 I would maybe add it.
