So Cal

[mccuskerkt]

Busy day for SoCal craigslist, what do you think on the prices? Which ones do you think are the best sounding (provided everything works as it should)? Also, which ones would you most likely buy, if you were looking for speakers?
No Affiliation. It should also be noted that I am looking for a pair of speakers for personal use, I will not be flipping anything.

If you're asking which is the best value, I'd go for the Dahlquists. They are also one of the (if not the...) best sounding speakers on that list.

Funny thing is... I could sell you almost every speaker on that list as I have almost all of them.

+1 on the DQ-10s.

Check out the Polk SDA-1s. By umbilical cord, he's referring to the interconnnect cable that runs between the two speakers and allows the SDA technology to work.

The BA A-150s are good speakers. But the deal is fair, not a steal.

Thanks for the info, I am pretty new to the vintage thing. I am ok with paying what is fair, I just want to make sure I am not paying too much. I know how to find a ballpark figure on receivers and amps and the like, but speakers seem to be harder.

If working the Infinitys are the steal...as well as the DQ-10s but less so....

Uhhh... No Infinity's on that list.:scratch2:

DQ10's are a good deal and great speakers.

Yes - the $250 DQ10s are a very good deal, if in good condition. They need some breathing room, away from back wall and side walls - but throw an awesome stoundstage.
