I am considering down-sizing my HT system to use the funds elsewhere. If I were to do this, I would move to an all RTiA system. I won't know if it's worth it without hearing them in my room, so I'd like to give'em a go. I'm looking for the following, used but in great shape:

- RTiA7's in cherry
- CSiA6 in cherry
- FXiA6's in black

Let me know if you have any of these to get rid of. Thanks.

    I believe Kevhead has some fxia6's in black, along with some A9's and a csia6 all in black I would buy his center from him if he sells his other speakers, you should shoot him a pm.

    This is more of a "what if" experiment. I'm expecting that I'll end up keeping the Ushers, but who knows... if I can get 80% of the performance at 20% of the cost, that would be hard to say no to.

    Oh they're still around... I think I actually have one of every model in the house right now. They all need to go... except the 703's. They'll be hitting the flea market soon... along with a bunch of other gear. It's time to purge.

    I've got what you're looking for, but there's no way I'm selling them :)

    Yes, for HT purposes only.

    At first I found them a bit hot on top, but after break in, MIT Shotgun cables and jumpers, custom stainless steel spikes, hurricane nuts with stainless steel cap screws (a real bit(h of a job) and some AVR tweaking I'm really happy with their performance.

    Crap.... your not making me happy Jesse :smile:...

    I had an offer to do a swap for my LSi system (15's, C, F/x's) for a set of RTi A's (9's, A6, FX's)..... I was in debates if for a 70/30 HT/Music rig it would be worth it.... might be able to get some cash added to the deal since my LSi's are a MUCH higher dollar speaker than the RTi A's, but still debating myself...

    Dan, maybe this will make you feel better. I tried the A7's in the HT rig for 2 channel music just to hear it, I won't try that again. That said, you have to consider my 2 channel rigs are on an entirely different level.

    Dan is also waving that carrot in front of my nose...but then I have a reputation to maintain as the LSi hoarder...
