If you like rock n roll then you have the right set of speakers in which case recap and rock on !!!!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/316286.aspxSat, 26 Feb 2011 13:25:50 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:316286Bigfoot0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/316286.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=316286<p>The condition seems alright.

They sound pretty good, I was wondering how you guys would rate this. Is it worth to make some improvements?</p> <p>Honestly I would rather trade them in for a couple of RL 65 or RL 6000, as I like that design better. Any ideas what the M70&#39;s would be worth?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
