Polk Audio A10

I just scored a pair of these on CL for $100. Figured what the hell. Drivers and tweeters mint. No prior experience with old Polk stuff. Unhooked my B&W 804 matrix plugged these guys in...pleasantly surprised !

I had picked up a used pair myself a few years ago and was very (pleasantly) surprised how they sounded compared to some of today's speakers. another nice vintage speaker is the Klipsch Forte I and EPI 20+ (my current fave of vintage speakers)

With a vintage receiver or similar with vinyl, the mid/treble problem is not as noticeable. the klipsch forte suffers from similar problems BUT if you update the crossover and tweeter with the Bob Crites models, they are much improved! enjoy the Polks Jeff
