I’m looking to buy a set of Polk L800 but I can’t find a true left and right, what would happen if I bought two lefts or two rights what ever is available brand new does it really matter

Yes, you do need a left and a right.

I wish I could answer that. I ordered replacement crossovers for mine and came to learn that left and right are identical. The two in my speaker are the same part number as those shipped to me by Polk.The Gear... Carver "Statement" Mono-blocks, Mcintosh C2800 Arcam AVR20, Oppo UDP-203 4K Blu-ray player, Sony XBR70x850B 4k, Polk Audio Legend L800 with height modules, L400 Center Channel Polk audio AB800 "in-wall" surrounds. Marantz MM7025 stereo amp. Simaudio Moon MiND2 Shunyata Triton/Typhon Rotel RP9400 Turntable

It would be hard to believe if the speakers were actually made differently, I have a ton of polks and some Goldenear but I was just thinking maybe snag a set or I can get I used LSI 707 for like 700-800. I have the triton one.r and the Triton 2 and Polk SDA 1.2tl and Polk Rt3000 and many more

I’m sure the crossovers are the same, I’m assuming it’s all in the wiring, question is can that easily be done? I own a set, but have never really opened them up, other than replacing the tweeters.

Is it worth spending 6000 grand on two lefts at best buy
-
I like the mids an highs on the Goldenears but I have already added to Sunfire Hts 10s and i normally run a Pioneer PL707 turntable so if I turn up the volume my subs go nuts as it gets some sort of feedback with the turntable but I feel my Rt3000p still have more bass so that’s why I thought of the l800

Sorry 2 sunfire subs
-
The question is worth 6000

That would be my guess as well. If @nooshinjohn was inside of his, he may have some insight.I’m sure the crossovers are the same, I’m assuming it’s all in the wiring, question is can that easily be done? I own a set, but have never really opened them up, other than replacing the tweeters. -

Absolutely not! They are worth half that. Best Buy never stocked them in their stores. I do not know where
you are located, but these are worth a drive...

You need a subsonic filter, something like this.

Are worth getting then

Will was talked out of them before vs the Goldenears so maybe not worth it

I've found that turntable isolation goes a long way when trying to reduce feedback. If the walls and floor are shaking from the bass thumping, the stylus on your turntable is, too!Enjoying the journey while never attaining the destination.
