    Ok.....I'll bite.

    The price went up on WHAT :confused: . It helps if you are a bit more specific when posting to a public board like this.

    At first I thought it might be the Directed Electronics stock price or something... but nope, that didn't go anywhere.

    Odd post.

    Danny Bonaduce sez:
    The price of fame.

    But I sez:
    The Price is Right.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Sorry, I meant the RTi Series. The prices are went up at Crutchfield, Amazon, J&R, OneCall. I was looking to buy a pair of RTi and found out most stores went up the price so wondering what's going on.

    Anyone know when the new Rti line will be available?....or when they will stop selling the current Rti line? I want to make sure I get out and get a pair of Rti12 or 10's before they are discontinued.

    Thanks,
    Brian

    The sale period ended. They're back up to regular price. Same for the Surroundbar which was discounted by $200 for a while.

    You still have times to save up some Jim. For me I would rather pick up old RTis at closeout price. I don't think they make much different on new RTi to pay full price even though they have new tweeter and driver. The big difference I can hear in my ear is from R series to RTi or RTi to LSi. If the price is not much different, I would go for new series. The price matter for me.:o I think I should slow down my shopping skill for RTi.
