I have gone back to using cream and razors. This electric shaver is around 5 or 6 years old, but hasn't been used in over a year. It has a pop-up beard/mustache clipper on the back side. New blade packs are about $25 and I replaced them about once every 12 to 18 months. Comes with case, charging cord and electric razor.

Boston Acoustics CR65

Boston Acoustics pretty much invented the small moderately priced high quality speaker with the A40 back in the early 80's. They have remained masters at good quality at a moderate price ever since then. The CR65 could be called the 2002-2003 successor to the A40. Unlike the A40, the CR65 woofer have a rubber surround instead of foam, so they won't suffer from foam rot.






These are smooth sounding speakers that sound great with Jazz, pop, classical, etc. They will surprise you with the bass output for their size, and also blend very well with sub-woofers for a home theater set up. I am listening to them as I type this and they are detailed and alive. When I first bought a pair of CR65's I compared them to speakers ranging up to twice their price. The Boston's matched or beat the detail of more expensive speakers. Even when I expected the higher priced speakers to be better based on appearance and reputation.

These are great for Dorm room, office, bed room, or other small to moderately sized rooms. Paired with a T-Amp they worked very well for me as home office speakers.

Used with a sub-woofer they can easily fill a whole 2400+sqft house with sound. The CR65s also make a wonderful introduction to the world of high fidelity sound. I have seen area bars use 3 or 4 pair of these speakers to provide sound, so they can take demanding content and long hours of play.

As I have told may people given the choice of a cheap home-theater-in-a-box system, I'd much prefer a pair of good STEREO speakers. These fit the bill, nicely.

There is a small scratch in the side of one speaker, seen in the middle photo above.

Polk Audio RM3000 Satellites

These were one of the first sets of high quality 3 piece Sub Satellites systems made when the sub/sat idea became popular. The speakers had a damaged binding post when I got them, but I repaired that and they work and sound good.

They do NEED a sub-woofer to go with them. They are very well made an weight more that speakers two or three times their size. The dusk cap on one of them is dimpled, but this doesn't effect the sound at all.

Grills for Polk Monitor Model 4

These are not in perfect condition, but they are in fair condition, 8 out 10. There are minor scuffs and nicks and pulls in the grill cloth. They can't been seen from a distance of a few feet, but noticeable from 1 or 2 feet. Frames and Logo's are in great shape. Could apply new cloth if needed. And I might be able to dig some up, or point you to a cheap on-line source.

These are Polk Audio S6 Speakers (specs on Polk Audio site), they are a good pair of speakers from 1990's. Still in great working condition. Like most Polks these are very efficient speakers so they require very little power to get to decent listening levels.

Tweeter    1" Diameter (2.54cm)      dome tweeter
Midrange   6-1/2" Diameter (16.51cm) driver
