    This pair of Monitor 10s is all original including the exemplary Polk Audio SL2000 Silver Coil Tweeter which was vastly superior to the later used Peerless tweeter or Polk's subsequent SL2500 tweeter.
    That was funny...

    The previous owner painted the cabinets and quite frankly did a miserable job. The cabinets were painted black and there are visible runs in the paint. Only the exterior of the cabinets were painted.
    Oh Thank God the interier wasnt touched.

    The baffle boards into which the drivers are mounted were not touched. The bad paint job in no way affects the incredible performance of these speakers.
    Is he sure?????

    I will gladly provide photos if you want to e-mail me. If you're capable of refinishing, then with a little work you can have an outstanding looking and sounding pair of speakers
    LOL..I'm still reading
