    How so? Everything I saw was consistent with parted out 10As from 1979. Some people stole those, and the tweeters. I just didn't need any more myself.

    I had planned to pick these up tomorrow but I seriously just have no room for more speakers. They look a little rough in the pics but definitely worth $100 for 12C's.

    Question is why did he not do any pics with grilles off. I wouldn't personally drive too far without that.

    If it has foam around it, it's either a SL2500 or a SL3000.

    Shows ya what I know! I thought all the tweeters from back in the day had silver domes. When I saw the black ones on these I assumed they had to be the 194 or 198 replacements. Thanks for the correction! Not as good a deal then.

    Still a good deal for someone considering their condition and the SL2500 is a pretty good tweeter.

    Unusual to see those tweets in those speakers. I had no idea they ever used those in the smaller speakers like that. 10,s, 7, 5 and such. It would have tricked me too. Would have probably thought that someone put the wrong tweets in from another set of Polks or something. That is a nice set of speakers. I hope you get them and get a good deal on them too.

    I also have a pair of 5's that I bought about 8 years ago. Although mine aren't as nice they were considerably less. I bought them for 30 dollars.

    Camden, SC. But they are not in any kind of budget right now. In the middle of a kitchen remodel and building a lean-to for a place to put my new mower and slab leveling table.

    I don't see why not. I would rather trade with the folks here on CP than just about anyone.
