I know its not going to happen but at $99 for the csi5 in black and the rti6 in black for $99 I would have a family again for my rti 8. Well one can hope I suppose :loneranger:

    Be happy to PFB...anything for you, pal! :biggrin:

    However, you might want to reconsider once you factor in the price of airfare, hotel (w/room service), ground transportation and incidentals. Do let me know though, would love to help out.

    I would tend to shy away from those models anyway, as the binding posts were not PFB rated yet.

    Don't trust Fry's stock checker. You have to call to check. I've been burned too often.
    And I haven't seen a RTI speaker in stock at there stores in the last year.

    Must be Plano. I normally go to Irving.
    I know at the beginning of the year they closed out the LSI series demo speakers.

    One set of LSI7's looked like someone beat it with a crowbar.
    What do these guys do to their demo speakers?

    I think engineers are still baffled by that one, so I don't think it matters until they actually create a successful design.

    I heard one of the hold-ups is that shipments of unobtanium from Pandora have been cut off. Until they get the metallurgy sorted out, PFB-proof binding posts will be as hard to find as black paint.
