Hey there... Looking to pick up a pair of rt55i's. I'm located near Chicago, so local would be great, but am willing to pay for shipping if it doesn't cost too much. I don't want to use ebay, I'd rather buy here because at least the people here seem to care about their equipment, and it's a community. Ebay is just buying from a stranger. Thanks in advance!!

    my problem is i paid $600 for them new like 8yrs ago i still have the box's,Manual,Registration card,and they still look like i just got them they are flawless. so to sell them for like $200 to $300 just kills me. so my plan is to use them in the livingroom upstairs.

    Yeah, I've been watching for a while now and there have been at least two sets that I can remember. One set I drove out to pick up, and the people never showed up. The other I couldn't get in time due to work. What should I be looking for as far as the tweeters are concerned?
