Just grabbed off Audiogon the RM7500 sattelite set for 200 bucks SHIPPED! The sub was not included, but I can add it at any time if I like. What are the opinions of these speakers. I get the feeling that they are the red-headed stepchild as they are never really discussed much here.

I have the RM7600 set, which I believe is the same with the exception of Trilaminate domes. It's one of the more musical HTIAB setups I've heard, but don't even consider using the wall mounts. These have a chesty quality even when sitting on stands, and much moreso when mounted on the wall. The satellites also suffer a bit from port chuffing at high volume if they are run full frequency. I think these issues arise from the shallow depth of the speakers.
With that said, I did enjoy my set for 5-6 years with a PSW505 in a small-medium-sized room. They are very well built.2.1: PC>Schiit Gungnir MB>Schiit Freya Noval>NAD C-270>Ascend Acoustics Sierra-1, HSU STF-2 5.1: HDMI Bitstream>Denon AVR-1910>polkaudio RTE55, CS350-LS, RT3, HSU STF-2, Visio M55-F0
