My 7's sound weird so I swapped in my 10's I bought new while in HS in the 80's. Listen to them daily in the basement office. I need to find someone here in South Carolina that can help me troubleshoot and fix some of my junk.

Saw one sitting in a record store in Vero. Guy said they developed a noise and they trashed the other one. I asked if he wanted to get rid of the remainder for parts since i have a set. They were on a loft and he didn't want to get them down.HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

SDA CRS for $400 here in Nashville. They look to be in great shape, but no mention of the grills, nor the SDA cable.

I'm not sure if that's a good price or not. Also, how would these compare to say, Monitor 10s?

No mention of grills or IC cord what I see. Tad bit high on price depending on area & availability.. IMO the CRS speakers are better then the Monitor 10's. Imo the Polk sda1c & 2b are better then the crs's..

Thanks for your reply, Randy. I messaged the seller, and he does have the grills (sent me a pic), which look very clean...like the cabinets. He does not have the IC cable, but I could make one pretty easily.
I currently have two pair of M10 (with upgraded crossover components), and a pair of SDA 1B, but the 'landscape' orientation of the CRS pique my interest. I might use them for HT purposes in a bookcase...and for music as well, in the same space.
I agree that the price is a tad bit high, so I will mull it over. Thanks again!"This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

If there hard to come by & are clean they may be the pair to purchase. They are great speakers. With just a simple tweeter upgrade if you don't like the sl2000s you'll love em..

Well, these 5’s are closer in north Baltimore but he wouldn’t go lower than 80 bucks. They are in “excellent condition” according to him, so maybe somebody here will pay him that. If I didn’t have 5jr’s already along with everything else, I might have paid him 80.

Get them! Original stands are worth the asking price all by themselves.
