    Thanks.
    So I guess $500 is too much for the two towers, two surrounds and a center along with a BPC Yamaha receiver.

    Actually the bookies may be LSfx's. Just looked at mine and from that angle you cant's tell that the cabs are tapered.

    I don't think they are RT2000P.
    RT2000P look like these, notice the different tweeter/mid housing shape as well as two piece grill instead of one piece in my post above:

    You beat me to it. Those are indeed RT20P's. The smaller ones are LSFX's. If the center is the CS350, then I'd say that system is probably worth it, especially with the receiver. I would be careful with the 8" drivers, though. I think they used the same drivers in my old RT16's and RT7's and had more than one of them go out on me. That's why I decided to get rid of them. As far as sound goes, the RT16's and CS350 were incredible. I would imagine that the RT20's would be pretty close in performance.

    Those might be worth the coin if you are going to keep them, but not for the speaker merry go round...they may be difficult to unload for what you paid.

    Pass. I still say you should sell half a bajillion of your bajillion speakers and use the money to get a pair of SDA 2.3 or 1.2's.
