Hi,

I'm looking for some mains, black, tower, spikable (that a word?), to replace the vintage Sansuis I have now, and can spend 4-5. Also need some surrounds, also black, to replace the polk R20s I'm using now. Can spend 2-3 on those. Package deals would be great. Looking for RT/FX or similar. Something in the D/FW area that I could actually listen to (and avoid shipping on) would be ideal, since the listed amounts must, sadly, include shipping.

The Sansuis actually sound pretty good, but with a CSi5 center, and with Polks for my sub, rear and surrounds, they just don't blend well. And there's the little issue of my HTR producing almost twice their rated wattage. I'd hate to blow them. Rather just keep them with my HK AVR 20, which matches up pretty well and use it as a bedroom stereo.

Thanks for reading, hope to hear from you.

    I'm selling a POLK AUDIO SRT system.

    New was over $12,000

    Asking only $1500 and I'm giving for free the surrounds at the price.

    I only have the single Right tower channel
    2 subs with out the controller
    and
    2 LS FX surrounds

    Thanks, but as I said, I have everything I need for now. The only things I might consider would be a set of RTi 6s for surrounds and a set of F/Xi 5s or maybe F/Xi A6s.
