I got a local offer for $300 for these, which I am thinking seriously about taking. Advice? Is this a better price than I'm likely to get on eBay?

Just got a PM asking for shipping to their zip code... Please, if you want to know the shipping, go to https://wwwapps.ups.com/ctc/request and put in:

If any serious potential buyers want me to try to get close up photos of any area, I am willing to snap pics and email. Just please please be respectful and don't ask for pics if there's no way...
This is the thread with the troubleshooting stuff:

"pretty close", yes... the wood veneer looks great and the drivers are all good. As I said, the grills have some fraying around the edges. It's hard to imagine they're about 20 years old.
BTW...
$200 *is* the reserve... I know that would be ridiculously low for these if they were 100% perfect, but note the caveats about the left speaker's electronics and look for the thread somewhere here...
I am the seller. Several of the members here assisted with troubleshooting these several months ago, the threads should all be searchable (unless there's a max age on here).
...
DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN! It's not the drivers, I swapped both out and it still does it.... But it doesn't when the dimensional drivers are out of the circuit. Crossover?
BTW, the seller is having 2nd thoughts about selling the 1.2TL's that started this thread, knowing he might not ever find a set like them again (he swears they are in absolutely perfect shape). He...
Las, when you upgrade, talk to me about the TFM-35's, I might take 'em off your hands if you're looking to sell them off.
Zingo, what are those? They're real purty... ;)
Note that in the original question, I didn't say "like wow man, OMG I gotta stack these", I actually posed the question of A) what was the consensus on running multiple small speakers vs 1 set of big...
That said, I find them to be pretty forgiving of less-than-ideal conditions. I've had 1C's and 2B's in narrow rooms and positioned with the front plane of the speakers behind obstructions like TV...
Bobt, where are you getting your info. Quoted from the manual:
"Distance 'S' should be AT LEAST 3 feet. Placement closer to sidewalls will interfere with 3-dimensional imaging". (capitalization...
When I called Polk for MY replacement MW6511 (just this last Friday) I told the Polk customer service guy I needed a replacement driver for my SDA 1C and he immediately said "OK, that's gonna be an...
Not that anyone replied, but nevermind. It's gonna be SRS 1.2TL's, if and when a nice pair comes up for sale near Phoenix, AZ (hint to anyone looking to unload). I just can't seem to find anything...
I think this is what I'm actually gonna end up with if/when one goes on sale within driving distance from Phoenix, AZ (hint hint to any Polkies looking to unload a nice pair).
Yes, per "Bass response down to 16Hz, 120dB SPL at 30Hz". Also answers a few other counterquestions above ;)
I was thinking of trying this as opposed to a just pair of LSi15's.
Are there any glaring reasons why this would be a bad idea (assuming they will be supplied with adequate amplification)?
What...
Wow, someone STOLE 'em for $566...
I was sooooooo close to placing a bid since I'm close enough to drive up there, but I told myself I am not gonna buy another set of vintage Polks unless they are...
I have another thought too, how would an array of LSi9's combined with a pair of subs (of undetermined model at this point) work? I could start out with 2 per side and then add to that if needed. ...
Another vote for the TFM-15 suggestion - those Carvers were pretty good amps, and you can get 'em cheap on eBay.
I'm looking to upgrade to something from my current RTi150's (I also own a pair of SDA 1C's which is waiting for a replacement driver). I am considering LSi15's, older SDA-SRS 1.2TL's, and lately...
Do they have shooting ranges near you? Go to one and ask around if anyone reloads, then find out where they get their stuff. You might have to order it.
This is directed to anyone who owns or has owned both the 1.2's and the 2.3's... how much of a difference is there? Is there a major difference in bass, or fullness of the sound, or volume they'll...
