Stopped by my local pawn shop today. They had a set of RTi10's, CSI A6, and a PSW10 all four peices for $300 all in cherry. The only problems I could see was some nicks and scratches on the cabinets of the towers and center. They had them hooked up to a denon 3801 all drivers and tweets were working fine and sounded good. of course I have no use for the PSW10 and would give it away. Do you guys think I should grab these. Thanks for any input. :D

    I paid $300 just for my CSI A6 so for the whole set it's a great deal.

    Too bad, I've learned from experience that you can't wait. I got my PS3 on a good price from the CC out of business sale..talked to the sales guy who said they had none in stock, talked to another guy telling me that they had a truck shipment coming in the next day with 6 units. Asked the guy...could you give me an idea what timet the truck will roll in? 4PM. Was there almost on the dot, truck got in a bit earlier...but I still got one of the last two units.

    Rtis at that price....phenomenal even with a bit of cosmetic damage...sorry man! But don't let that happen AGAIN! If you know what something is and that it's good someone ELSE probably ALSO knows.

    A couple of months ago I was checking out a Goodwill store and saw a huge Klipsch sub. It was triangular shaped w/ 1 x 12" woofer and 2 x 12" passives. Cosmetics were good and price was $250. Looked about 5 years old.

    Went home and googled it: 1000w RMS amp; FR 18Hz +/-3dB; list $2,200; replaced in 2005.

    Went back the next morning and the bird had flown. :eek:
