    Just picked up a set of RT55's for $90. They sound really nice, lots of bass. Just have to find some stands I can put them on that will support them. They are definately not small "bookshelf" speakers.

    I'm an RT55 lover also. heard and owned the RT800 and have to agree they sound very close.

    Congrats on the 90.00 pr..:eek:
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Does anyone know which Polk subwoofers match the RT55's?

    I disagree. IMO they were one of the hidden gems of the late 90s and early 00s Polk line. Very good and tight bass and the Tri-Lam tweeters while not as smooth as the vifas in the LSis, they are not harsh. Between them and the RT25i you had Polk's best speakers of that particular era.

    Amen to that Shack-master.
