    Get the 1B's. Thank us later. Welcome to Club Polk.

    OK that helps. I'm in Australia working at the moment, If they are still there when I get home in 9 days I'll go get them.

    Location?

    I live in Northeast PA (Scranton), so I've driven as far as Philly and into the North Jersey area (2 hours) to buy speakers or amps before, so I'm not afraid to drive a bit, I'd say 2 hours is my radius.

    I got my CRS+ right before Christmas and paid $200 for a perfect mint condition pair. $1800 is crazy!! You could buy some really serious speakers for that kind of bread.

    The CRS's are some awesome speakers but you need to find them for the right price. I would not pay over $350 for those and thats pushing it.

    Ok super helpful.
    I live in a small town and sometimes people really overestimate what they have vs the rest of the civilized world, its not isolated to speakers, old car parts, lots of stuff is very "over valued". You drive 2 hours towards Philly or NYC and find the $200-$300 deals you guys were posting of.

    That's WAY too much for the CRS, ridiculous in fact. Even the 1.2 price is unrealistic.

    Thanks. It seemed crazy high based on what I have read on this forum, but I wanted to check with you guys.

    Hey Guys, would any of you tell me what a Polk Forum approved counter offer to this ad might be:

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/646441541402128/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post

    Or is it so high that the seller is so delusional that just ignore?

    Is that a good entry level SDA?

    The ad on the SDA 1B I saw and posted about previous is gone already so I am guessing sold, so no chance on that one.

    That SRS SDA 2 is the most desirable of the two. Personally I'm at the $1000 or less camp and they will need to be in fantastic shape for $1000. As always location, location, location....

    Pair of CRS that the price still hasn't gone through the roof.

    Even better, those are CRS+.
