If I can get used - wonderful. If not, I'll look around for the best "new" deal I can get. I've listened to so many speakers - and keep going back to my "dream team" ones. Sigh. Now, let's see - a dollar 35, a dollar 36 - hey - I'm getting there! (grin) |

Silver Member Username: Larry_rNaples, FL Post Number: 497 Registered: Oct-04 | Well, I got the B&W 705s - and now am offering my Polk RTi6 speakers - cherry wood finish - just 9 months old - perfect condition - low use with classical music. $230 includes shipping to any of the "lower 48" states. Money order or cashier's check. They're "cherry" in every way. . . |

jimvm Unregistered guest | Congrats on your new 705's. Out of curiousity, where did you find them? |

Silver Member Username: Larry_rNaples, FL Post Number: 513 Registered: Oct-04 | Found them on an out-dated audiogon ad, which had been pulled several months ago. Did a "blind" e-mail query, and the chap said they were still for sale. Bought them! |

jimvm Unregistered guest | Excellent! Good for you! When I was speaker shopping, the 705's were my favorites but they were too expensive and the matching center channel wouldn't fit in my cabinetry. |
