FU to Polk Center Channel: Cherry CS1 is now $63 shipped (thru 12/21) - SteveO - 12-19-2009

Originally I was looking at CS10 but liked the finish a little better on the CS1 (cherry all around vs. just on top) and the price was nearly a steal imho; they have nearly identical specs. I went ahead and grabbed it. It's been sitting at my local UPS since yesterday morning. NewEgg got it there in less than 12 hours from the time I placed my order. Impressive.

EDIT: I should mention this is a center channel stereo speaker.

Nice find. I've got the towers of a deal on outpost years ago. I really like them.

Got the Cerwin-Vega VE-5C last week from Buy.com for $62 shipped. They're now {no surprise} sold out. http://www.buy.com/prod/cerwin-vega-ve-5c-center-channel-speaker-2-way150-w-pmpo-magnetically/q/loc/111/202417558.html

Also snagged a Onkyo SKW 204 Subwoofer for $96 shipped from Bottom Line Telecomm, another sellout!
Goes on Amazon for $145. 10 inch + 230W amp & its massive :wiggle:

I got the same deal on the [black R30] towers 3-4 years ago, they sound great. My only regret is not getting the cherry towers. Of the Polk towers, imho the R series has the best design/look in recent memory. I'm actually thinking of putting my R30s and black Bose 301s (which I really don't use since I moved) on CL and getting a deal on a set of refurb Polk Monitor cherry towers. Unless I can find a set of cherry R30s or R50s.

Nice deals, Panopticon!

I got the cherry ones. Not sure if they're R30's or 50's... gotta love email. Just searched and found my receipt from '06 - R50's. I got them for $160 for the set.
