Hello new here. I can get a complete set with the polk audio cs400,two fx500,and two rt100p for $300. I know they are very old but in good shape is this a good deal?

    I only have experience with the cs400. I bought new and it sounds great. Just make sure you give it clean power. Welcome to CP.

    That is one of the best-voiced speaker lines Polk ever produced. They are great for any purpose and are well worth the $300. Be aware that the plate amps on the towers might need some additional work as the caps in them are known to go bad by this point.
