Got these awhile back 120 bucks jbl north ridge E 30’s going to be rear presence channel’s.Haven’t had time to run the cables and find a good wall mount . They are well built and Farley heavy for there size .
Congrats! I had the JBL E20 in Cherry. I loved those for clarity & decent bass and would have never sold them, but they drowned. The E30 I got later and sold them. They were not good as fronts as the E20, but good for surround. I was hoping to find a E20 pair in the thrift store, but never has appeared.

Anyone familiar with Acoustic Research? I found these for a hundred bucks. They look pretty nice. I guess that's an actual phase plug on the woofers. Never heard of them before tho.


They look to be from the Recoton and Jensen days ... just like Advent they went to the wayside
All I know from AR is the center speaker I got. It's a great center.

Holy poop. I'M tempted!
Whoa, gulp. You are tempting Mark. Not close to me. Four and a half hours. Might be $50 shipped. Gotta be a mistake.
I wondered that too, but if you... oh wait. That's Facebook, not ebay. There aren't any protections there, and they'd prolly change the terms to ship to AZ.

I do not trust the $5.50 mail quote ... and I only buy local from Facebook

Oh yeah. I completely agree. Same with cl. I was thinking ebay when I got a li'l excited then remembered it was fb. If it was ebay there's some buyer protection and if you lock it in don't they have to honor the shipping?

I ain't driving to Florida! Lol.

I'd prolly spend more in gas than the speakers...
If they were closer I'd get them test em and hold them for You or Mark. I could catch a bus and probably cheaper. Still they are two and a bit heavy for this skinny guy. Contact him and ask for shipping prizes :) to Arizona or Ohio. Just to see what he says.

Id probably meet the seller half way if I didn't have mine. He looks like a new seller only one year. Mark go get them! :D
I have been wanting to rebuild a set of these with updated drivers and crossovers and redo the cabs very tempting !

That is very cool of you. In fact I'll add that if anyone sees something I post and they want it I'm totally willing to do the same. I tried to for @NINaudio with those nice JBLs for $50 but the guy wouldn't reply to me!

I believe you, but I ain't driving to Florida! Lol
I paid a guy in California like 200 bucks to ship a pair of these to Ohio freight. Paid him 600 for the pair now there piping up out of thin air lol . But if his price is right hell it’s a win if and a big IF he knows how to box these up .
