August 27, 200520 yr Author Admin Hmmm....I have a frys right down the road. If anyone want me to I can go listen to them and give you a review.sure, Polk is based right near me, but I think these are 2003 models, but then I could be wrong,
August 27, 200520 yr Review I found on them. This is only 1 of 7 reviews but, he says he got them from outpost.com. All reviews - http://www.audioreview.com/cat/speakers/ma...47_1594crx.aspx"Reviewed by: batray, Audio EnthusiastPrice Paid: $50 at outpost.comProduct Model Year:2004Summary:I just had a pair of Polk Audio R30 towers delivered for $49.99 each + shipping from Outpost.com. I connected them to both a Harmon-Kardon HK 3480 receiver and Hafler DH-220 power amplifier and listed to them with a variety of sources including Scott Ross
August 27, 200520 yr Jntar, could you listen to them if you dont mind. It doesnt seem like a bad idea, I need another pair for home.
August 27, 200520 yr Will do I will do my best to go today, but I have a few friends coming into town. More then likely it will be monday.
August 27, 200520 yr sweet.....nice find on the review deville..i know my boy's bookshelves don't have that problem and i built them for about $50 each..wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
August 28, 200520 yr I agree with Kent...for a budget of $50, I could think of better options.Single 4.5" Fostex drivers in a transmission line? Maybe less power handling, but would be very reasonable in price. And a midrange to die for.
August 28, 200520 yr I bet most people that have the know-how or persistence to get the know-how to build a Voight pipe already have screws and glue at home
August 28, 200520 yr and even if they don't, that's roughly $40 for material..not too bad.in my case, i already had everything here at the house...so if i want to get technical, here's the run down on cost for my boy's bookshelves...2 terminal cups @ $.88 each= $1.762 1.5" port tubes @ $.40 each= $.802 hi fi fabric dome tweeters @ $8.73 each= $17.462 dayton 7" alum cone woofers @ $18.15 each= $36.30shipping from ohio,IIRC = $10.10 grand total= $66.42if u want, toss in $50 for wood, screws, glue and stain and the total is $116.42....or $58.21 a cabinet. which is probably a lil cheaper then those polk ones when u consider shipping. now, i didn't pay for my crossovers, which would add around $20, figuring high, per cabinet. but u have custom built cabinets compared to mass produced ones...and if u go the route jim suggested, using full range drivers, u don't need the crossover....so money will be saved...but then again, not everyone can build stuff...or else there wouldn't be a need for mass produced, prefabbed anything...wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
August 30, 200520 yr but then again, not everyone can build stuff...or else there wouldn't be a need for mass produced, prefabbed anything...And even then.....sometimes those of us who can build stuff simply don't have the motivation to build stuff

August 30, 200520 yr The "asshat" and "boo-pucking-hoo" are ones that are going to see some action over on CA.com
