WTB: Pair of FX1000 Speakers

DiscoMike

Anyone willing to part with their FX/1000 Rear Channel Speakers ? All the tweeters and baffles should work, and the finish should good and clean.

Please send pics.

Thanks much !!!

SRT's come up on audiogon or Ebay from time to time. Same with everything else.......

Keep an eye out

Save your cash and get a CS400, and a nice subwoofer.
The CS400 is every bit the center channel the CS1000p is,
except for the built in subwoofers, which adds very little to a center channels performance.
Also, if you insist on a CS1000p, I would mount it on a shelf over the tv, because the subs in the unit create a fair amount of vibration.
I had a CS1000p and ended up running dual CS400's instead.

Coming from some one who owns both. I think you will find the SRT center out performs the CS1000p. Most sets that I have seen for sale have the center and surrounds. Good Luck

SRT Center is just a CS350, right?

Not quite. Different drivers, crossovers, and enclosure. Two completely different animals.

Hi Polk65 !!!
I bagged the SRT Centre and CS1000p on ebay. Both should arrive later this week. I just bagged the FX/1000 on ebay, which I should have by next week. The SRT Stereo pair I auditioned this week at the sellers apt. and made an offer. I am waiting to hear back from the seller, hopefully by this week.

I am touting the idea of having a second centre channel to see if it makes more of a presence. The amps on the centre channel speakers on both of my systems are stereo amps, which they can accomidate for another centre channel.

Damn Polk - you have the entire line of Polk Speakers. Is your first name Matt ???

No - the SRT Centre uses different drivers and tweets, is Bi-Amplified, and is heavier than the CS350. The CS350 has the same number of drivers, but is not bi-amped.

Once I get the SRT Centre, I will sell of my 350s.

Congrats on the surround buy!

Without the active crossover, the SRTs are just big speakers. SDA won't be functional, if I understand correctly.
