    No. A while now. Yes.

    Go for it, it is a great speaker. I just got mine and I am blown away. That sounds like a great deal too. DO IT! :)

    Yes, a very nice speaker at a very nice price. I own the CS400i and it's completely changed the way I enjoy a movie. Also, and I don't know whether this helps or not, but another club member indicates that the CS400i replicates the front soundstage for his **** flawlessly. Have you ordered through Brandnamez previously?

    I've had my 400 for over a year.
    It's currently working as a rear center, (and definitly not getting the amount of signal it deserves) but still sounds great in surround audio.

    don't know aboutthe **** stuff, but last night I ordered a cs400i from Brandnamez for $269 - this is the 1st time I've ordered from them - I hope they are safe to order from.

    I now have an extra RM7600 center spkr, does anyone want to buy it ? It's in mint cond and perhaps under 30 hrs - I probably haven't 'broken it in' yet. I'm going to use my rm7600 sats as rear surrounds

    Hey, just for the record I wasn't the only one talking about ****. There were many others of you that were talking about it.

    ncstatesman: Have you checked the under the "recent product models" on polk's home page?

    well, the 7600 center channel spkr is part of the 7600 system pkg, so it's not priced separetly, I would venture to sell it for 180 and split the shipping cost. Let me know what you think

    My fault I just looked it up. It is a product selling right now. For the price maybe subtract the PSW650 then divide by 5?

    That might work! :D

    ncstatesman,
    Does brandnamez still have any in stock? Or did they put you on a waiting list for the 400i?

    I just ordered a cs400i from Brandnamez and was on a 14 day waiting list. It did finally come in but it was a tough wait. It's a great speaker for the $269, not a hard descision at all.

    For what it's worth, Crutchfield just dropped their price on the 400 from 399.95 to 299.95.
