Hello fellow Polkies,
I purchased an RT5000 set not long ago and have been performing a couple small repairs. The center channel has a pair of binding posts broken. My question is, should I just replace the whole housing with 4 posts in it, or are those posts removable, or does it share the the same housing as another speaker or? Any info would be greatly appreciate, thanks a ton!!!

    If the binding post brass plates are still intact do nothing just use the other post. You could replace all with after market pretty straight forward.

    Post a picture and we can help much better and understand what is going on.

    Of course ignore dbKiller....

    Grew up in Danville, IL (wasn't THAT bad when I was growing up), but then I moved here from Champaign. Got a few friends that went to ISU.

    Its awesome, it automatically links all of my music with my phone, I can see all the music and select it from anywhere in the house. Pretty sweet!
