I need you guys to put me back in my place.

Recent scores:

RTi12s Mains
CS 400i Center
Fxi 3x Surrounds
PSW 350 Sub

Speaker package total: 600.00


Pioneer Elite VSX-23: 300.00 shipped

Throw in a JBL CSS 10 Sub that I scored not too long ago for 75.00 and that brings a pretty good system together for $975.00

Ok, who has done better than that recently? Family doesn't count. Let me know! Could be fun!

BTW my old stuff is for sale. See post!

    Yes, I'm in for it. Won't be the first time however. I had my fun with cars, but now drive a Civic. Guess I had to move on to something else ;)

    I was hoping to get some "love". That is a serious set up BTW. I don't even know what half of it is.

    In all seriousness, I have learned a lot in the short time I have been a member and that has helped me find quality stuff at a good price. Thanks!

    Yes, this is addictive and very easy to rationalize. I am pretty sure it is coming to an end for awhile though. I have never had such cool stuff.

    I can see though adding an amp, better cables, wire,....oh crap!
