They're disappearing fast.

Strata Minis

At 95 pounds each, hardly a mini!

Just ordered them. Will be moving the Mirage towers to the rear. Soon will have a set of RTi10s for sale here.

Don't get me wrong, I like the Polk stuff just fine. But I got this upgrade bug thing..

    Yes, you may still post here.

    Have you demoed the Mini's, or did you buy sight unheard?

    I own and listen to lots of non-Polk speakers, but my purchased-new Monitor 7A's are with me for life.

    (which is my ego-centric way of saying why didn't you just add speakers, rather than replacing them?)

    My first seat of Speakers were polk RT55's, CS400, and RT25's. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Still kinda miss those old speaks.... Bought those about 8 years ago. I will always be a polkie!

    98thumpin was that 1.2tl's or 3.1tl's? :)

    Schwingding you've got a good set of ears so I hope you stick around. Speaker registration here was tossed to the wind years ago and was a pretty good thought.
