For sale is a modified BIC DV-62CLRS center channel speaker in 9/10 condition. The speaker was modified by Ed Frias. I purchased this speaker directly from him about four months ago. I'm selling only because I found a timbre match for my fronts.

As I have mentioned in previous posts here on the forum, this center channel is very highly regarded. (See this thread: http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/show...&highlight=BIC) IMO, at a fraction of the cost, this center channel spanks the pants off the Polk Csi-40 which I used to own.

See the reviews here and take special note of what many of the reviewers have to say about the Ed Frias modified versions: http://www.audioreview.com/cat/speak...3_2743crx.aspx

This BIC has an “extensive modification” which includes the measuring of all drivers to make sure they are balanced and meet specs, rebuilding the crossovers to a much higher standard of accuracy, and measuring all components to make perfectly matching pairs. All capacitors, resistors and inductors are measured and matched within 1% of each other. Not only is the midrange and highs improved with this modification, but the bass is also improved (cleaner and tighter) by using much higher-grade inductors. This completely reworked version produces audiophile quality sound and presents a cleaner, smoother and more accurate sound than the stock version!

Price is $95 plus actual shipping costs in USA only. PayPal is preferred. It will ship in the original box. Post here, then PM me if interested.
