Polk Audio-LSIM 705 Floorstanding Loudspeakers-THIS IS FOR A PAIR OF TOWER SPEAKERS.(2) Midnight Mahogany-MINT--SAVE $1000.00 over new! These cost $1500 each in store!-I purchased these recently(6 months ago) and unfortunately am moving to a place where I will not be able to ever use them..My loss is your gain..These are the best speakers you will hear for under 3-5k each and still sound just as nice as the speakers that cost such..Local pickup only due to weight..These are serious speakers and need some legit power..Must hear and see to appreciate the quality of these speakers..Beautiful cabinets..These are barely broke in IF they even are..I've not used them except for movie watching etc...Save money over new..Still have the boxes and speakers are in new condition..Cost over $3,000 for the pair new.Local pickup only.I'd first heard the predecessors of these speakers (LSI series) almost 20 years ago and never forgot them (but couldn't afford them, at the time). The setting was a listening room with mostly more expensive speakers, and they sounded better than anything less then 3 times their cost. When the opportunity came to buy a pair of these moderately upgraded models, I finally went ahead. They sound even better than I'd remembered! I like rock, classical, and jazz and the clarity and impact of these speakers is just fantastic. At the same time, they're the most musical speakers on the market.But as thrilled as I was at that point, it wasn't until I watched the latest Clancy movie on prime (without remorse) that I really found out what these things can do. The movie itself was a little too predictable and cliche for my taste, but the sound! If you've ever been close in at a major fireworks event and experienced the visceral impact of the mortars they use to launch large fireworks you'll know what these things can do. I wouldn't have believed that any speaker could produce such tight, full, impactful sound.Amazing. Just amazing what these things can do.Then play some acoustic rock or jazz and be equally astonished at how clear and precise they are with intimate music.Polk uses a very sophisticated set of bass enclosures to support low frequencies, separate low and high midrange drivers, and their unique ring radiator tweeter for highs up to 40khz (far beyond what you can hear, but it clearly reduces intermodulation between frequencies that the driver has to handle. The result is very musical, but clear highs that aren't harsh and don't cause listener fatigue.These speakers are just incredible
