Polk Monitor 10's - $125
« on: September 07, 2013, 02:03:33 PM »
The cabinets are in very good shape, dark mahogany, grills are also excellent.  Clear/White dome on tweeters.  They are actually quite good sounding, I'd like to see them go to someone on here.  PM me if interested.

Listened to them today. They sound really good and are in excellent shape.  If you are into the vintage Polk sound, these are great reps.  They have upgrade potential in the x-overs and the tweets, and don't really need a sub as the bass is really nice as-is.

These speakers are a great bargin at the price Rev wants even without the stands.  Pepe is right about the bass.  Just right, not bloated.  You don't need much power to make the 10's sing.  These are definately what I would call "rock" speakers.  If you are into cranking rock music, these speakers are for you!  GLWTS

They would be either walnut wood veneer or rosewood vinyl as they never came in mahogany.

Definitely vinyl and looks like the rosewood. One of Polk's most popular speakers ever.
