Are These Finds Good Deals?

[lovinthehd]

Love em listening to some Jazz right now and it's fantastic. You should have gotten them. Mine are the 520s. How much were they asking for?

You got the center channel speaker for L/R? Or you mean 530?

Someday I'll have to test my 530s as L/R (just rear surrounds for now). The 520 got replaced by an Infinity RC263 in the 590/580/530 setup, tho.

I just saw this in the "local" CL https://eugene.craigslist.org/ele/d/cottage-grove-stereo-digital-to-analog/7352642970.html
I can't imagine paying that much for a mere dac but wonder what the heck the 66.0 refers to?

 

[lovinthehd]

Noticed this there, too....not bad price if in good shape. https://eugene.craigslist.org/ele/d/cottage-grove-stereo-turntable-technics/7352641252.html

JBL HP-520 speaker thread. Fun.

I got a pair yesterday. Got alot of help from cool members here! Thanks alot guyS for the nudge. I didn't want to flood Pogre thread, so thought I'd make a thread about them solely. A couple of pics from yesterday. I will post new pics once I get them cleaned up. Due to a toe accident yesterday...

I forgot about that acquisition. I guess S520 or S530 would be a better designation for mine....

How does a passive radiator work?

How does a passive radiator work?

It's like another driver but doesn't have a motor. It shares the same cab and is coupled to the actual bass drivers and moves with them. Passive radiators have a similar effect to porting.

I've owned a pair of Vienna bookshelf speakers, Haydn Grand SE. Nice cabinets, mediocre sound. Way overpriced for what you get in terms of sound quality.

Luckily I got them at a bargain price and was able to sell them quickly without taking a loss.

The measurements for several Vienna models are quite poor, regardless of what the reviewers say.

Check these out

Seller was nice enough to reply and say that they were speakers at a Nissan dealer. Would be interesting to see what they sound like.

Doesn't say how old they are but the price seems pretty reasonable too.
