    Model 19's Ebay $799 BIN

    Just re-read the ad--it's only ONE Model 19. Seller says "THE SMALL FLEXIBLE WIRES THAT RUN FORM THE WOOFER CONECTION TO THE PAPER CONE ARE MISSING" Sounds a little suspicious? $199 starting bid--may be worth a gamble even if woofer turns out to be blown (GPA can fix that)... After all, it is located in Vegas! If working properly, it would make one mean center channel!

    How do you end up with one M19? Hmmm, it is Vegas after all - I suppose there is one helluva back story there.

    I can tell you one way, people having yard/garage sales that think they're clever pricing their speakers "each".

    More than once, when i knew the guts would still flip at a profit, i've had to call the sellers' bluff by buying just one of their speakers. Bought my ESS AMT towers that way. Seller wanted 150 ea, so i bought just one after he declined my offer of 225(all the cash i had with me) for the pair. Sent a buddy back to the sale late in the afternoon, he got the seller to take 50 for the mate.

    It needs a re-cone minimum. It's not worth the BIN other than being an oak cab which would be hard to match unless you already had a single.
