I've got one in what appears to me to be in as new condition. Very attractive black wood speaker. I bought it for my mother a couple of years ago. She used it until she bought a TV that wouldn't facilitate a large center on top of it, so I got her a small one that would fit on the TV stand. Since then I've used it as a rear center in my system. I think this speaker should be a front center in it's own system. $170 shipped or $155 local. I'll post pictures later.

Two Channel Setup:

Speakers: Wharfedale Opus 2-3
Integrated Amp: Krell S-300i
DAC: Arcam irDac

    Thanks, guys. I really like it, too. I'd sell the CS400i instead because of the great condition the CSi40 is in and because of the styling (sleeker, and wood), but the CS400i matches the other speakers in the theater.

    If I didn't own a CSi5, it would be mine. Good deal for someone.

    I am currently running a CS250S, with S6 front left and right, each sitting on a PSW1200. S4 surrounds. If anyone can convince me that the CSi40 will sound better with my system than the CS250S, you can consider the CSi40 sold.
