Looking for Polk CS2 - Blu-ray Forum

onebadazn · 02-19-2009, 08:53 PM

Ok, I've looked everywhere for this and couldn't find the one that's black. Almost everywhere I've checked, it's always the cherry one. Any idea where I can find a black CS2 at a good price without having to settle with the CS20 that is a lot more expensive? I've checked newegg, ebay (has one that's an open box which I want to avoid), buy.com, amazon, frys.com. Or should I just go ahead and get the black CS10 from newegg?

I am also looking for a CS2 in black, I bought the T90e towers from newegg and I really like them. I guess I will have to save up and get the CS20.

I have one still in the box. Was going to sell it, because it is enormous, and when I put it on TV stand , it blocks the bottom of the TV. I built a stand for the TV, about 8" high, so now I have the TV on the stand & the speaker under it, looks pretty good. Sorry this doesnt help, just wanted to add my 2 cents.

I am in the same boat as you guys. I just went and bought the CS20 to kill off my anxiety.

If you are so hardpressed about getting a CS2 and all you can find is maple, keep in mind, it's only vinyl and I'm sure you could remove is and give it a nicer finish than any fake vinyl that you choose too. If your not interested, I'm sure someone could finish it for you. And if all else fails...get creative with a can of spray paint. Just remove the grill and mask off the silver part, the port and binding posts.

The black is just vinyl too?

From where I sit they cherry ones look just fine, especially when the lights are off and the HT is on.

EDIT: Oh, and did I say that I like the Cherry ones? Must be my age? I do wish they were real wood though, but that is out of my budget at this time. All the other furniture in my house is solid wood.. No veneers anywhere.

The whole Monitor/TSi line is MDF wrapped in Vinyl. And it's easy to remove and attach some fake/sorta real wood panels from like hobby lobby or something. Just suggestions IMO
