Asking $175 + shipping, will gladly split any Paypal fee. PM me any reasonable offers as I have no idea what CSi40's have been selling for lately... Also note that this will also be listed on ebay, but will gladly give first consideration to a Polk forum member...
Details:
I am the second owner, bought just over a year ago or so. I've only hooked it up once to verify operation (worked just fine), then put in the closet wrapped in a towel. I used some furniture polish on it this week (applied to towel first) to polish it up before taking the pix. One of the pix shows that I'm a better music lover than house cleaner...
Overall the cabinet is in very good condition, but will rate it 8/10 on the Audiogon scale due to a few surface scratches that do not penetrate the veneer. More like lines of indentations, if that makes sense. You need to be within a few feet to see them if you know where to look.
The grille is in 9/10 condition - no broken pegs, no fabric pulls, no broken ribs. Essentially some dust is the only imperfection on it. Factory brass jumpers are included. Original shipping box was not included when I purchased it, but I still have the large shipping box sent to me with the custom-type expanded foam inserts, so shipping should be safely done.
I prefer to ship FedEx Ground w/ full insurance and signature required...
FWIW, I have 100% +FB on Ebay, AVS Forums, Audiogon, Videogon, etc.

Agree, I love the other '40 in our main system - it's been nothing short of impressive. It's a tough decision to sell this second '40, but it's getting zero use now, so it's time to let her go...Excellent center channel speaker that mates well with most RT series speakers.

Hmmm.. This would be a nice upgrade to what I'm running currently... GF would kill me, with this I would have enough equipment for another system.... Hmmm.... Whats shipping look like to 28697?

If it's any consolation, I occasionally get "the look" from my fiancee with the stack of unused gear in a room downstairs - two Yamaha DVD-S2300's, Toshiba HD-A35 & HD-A20, Panamax M5300...oy...Hmmm..

I'll measure the box when I get home tonight and reply w/ shipping costs to your ZIP. Note that I highly prefer to include "signature required" service for obvious reasons, but if that's a problem for you I'll not include that.Main HT:JVC DLA-RS45135" Elite Screens fixed frame, 1.1 gainMarantz SR7007 (operating as pre-pro)Emotiva XPA-1 x3 (L+C+R), UPA-7 (surrounds)Oppo BDP-103D/BDP-83Toshiba HD-XA2Panamax M5410 Pro x3Polk LSiM707s, LSiC706, 80 F/X-LS, 65-RTSeaton Sound/MCCA MFW "Turbo" + custom Dayton SA1000 sub amp (orig.

I'm with you on that, I can have it shipped to a shop I'm normally at during the day so I can sign for it if we can work something out perhaps..

$44 flat, includes $500 insurance*, and signature req'd (automatically included with $500 ins.).Whats shipping look like to 28697?
* funny - if I insure for only $200 with no signature req'd, the rate is barely a buck cheaper... :rolleyes:
BTW, I added pix of the shipping box to the Picasa account - click here for them. I'll also wrap and seal the speaker in a plastic bag, before placing in the big shipping box (approx 30x16x18). The internal foam cores may look a bit goofy, but they protected the speaker perfectly when it was shipped to me...

You are correct, but it does have itLife without music would♭ -
I'll gladly drop shipping to $39 flat, and I'll cover the rest. The original $44 was the quote I got online using my FedEx acct #, so it's discounted already. I'll even cover the Paypal fees to help convince you that you really, really, REALLY should buy this from me...Still considering, that shipping is killing me.
I'm okay with a few less $$ if I know someone will really appreciate this speaker...and will take good care of it in case I beg to buy it back in a few months!
