I have an RT5000 package consisting of a pair of RT3000s, a pair of FX1000s, and a CS1000.


I am considering replacing them with the newer LS series. Any comments? Am I better keeping the RT series stuff rather than changing to the LS series?


Any interest? I would only sell the entire system as a package. I am located in central NJ. Would want a pickup deal, as shipping them would be a hassle.

Thanks
Eric

    I'm particularly interested in the center and surrounds, and though in TX have an ex-Bro-in-law in south Jersey and a daughter in DC that could solve the shipping problem.
    If I have to take the RT's, too, I would at the right price. Let's do e-mail (I'll start with a copy of this message).

    Sorry for the delay in responding.........

    I am still debating whether to replace the RT5000 with a LSi system (LSi25, LSiFX, LSiC).

    I have not had a chance to go and listen to the LSi's yet. Also, I haven't seen much feedback yet on the LSi's compared to the 5000 system. I don't want to sell the RT5000 first, only to be dissappointed in the LSi stuff.

    Once I decide which way to go, I'll let you know on the center and surrounds.

    Thanks

    Still here as of now, but am pursuing other options.

    I noted that you have a CS400. How do you like the "sound" match with your SDA's? I'm thinking about one, or the CS400i, or even the CSi40 as alternatives to the 1000 center.
