Just some advice

[College Kid]

As my user name states I am obviously a college kid looking for a good deal on some DECENT used speakers. I have been watching a used audio site online called craigslist??? and have found a pair of Cerwin Vega RE 25's (I think) for around 300 bucks and 4 hahah Old school Bose speakers- Two 201's and Two 701's that have hardly been used and are in prestine condition for 200 bucks.

Is thier a difference between the old Bose 701's and the new crapy 701's II series that every body bashes?? Do speakers age like hotrods ???
And is 200 dollars for a set of four old school Bose speakers to much??

Keep in mind broke college student looking to put some speakers that sound clean and bump around the house with out breaking the bank.

Which is not Bose according to most people on this site but I figured i would ask anyway

Onix X-LS

In your price range, I would check out the Onix X-LS bookshelf speakers from av123.com for $200 a pair. Check out the review on this site. They also have a few bstock pairs for $174.

The word "decent" pretty much rules out "Blose" products. In direct comparison with just about everything else Bose comes out second best.
