I thought while I still have them in the house, I'd better snap a couple of photos.

Dad: At work in the home theater and missed the photo session: RT3000P's.

Mom: RT2000P's in the back
Big brother: RT1000i's middle
Little brother: RT800's front

The other two are the CS400i and CS250S.

I suppose if I really had the time and wanted to move everything to the other room, I could have grabbed a photo of all of the RT's but I have people coming to demo the RT1000i's today......

    Nice!

    I've always loved the RT series for HT.....by the way you need to bring your RT5K system over still ;)

    Seriously, I have been cranking them today. I really prefer the RT800's over the RT1000's in 2-channel mode. Much fuller sound in the high and mid-section....and then when I turn on just one of the RT2000P subs (no upper section) suddenly the speakers sound awesome!....Not that the 3000's will be replaced but I'm now questioning whether I really want to let them go.....

    ....and no, I haven't forgotten....you have forgotten to provide me with a set of SRT's to replace them.

    Yea, for music I never really liked my RT1KP's. I feel kind of bad for them though, they're sitting back here as surrounds but not hooked up at all (sold my HT setup). I'll probably toss them in the bedroom or something. I really did like the RT800's, or better yet their smaller version the RT55's. Now if I can find a pair locally I'd grab it. I did but the seller insists on getting rid of the entire set as a whole, and doesn't want to separate the 55's.

    Never heard the 2k's but I can't imagine their bass for HT.

    As for the SRT's, I haven't found any yet other than that banged up "fine condition pair" that showed up on ebay then audiogon.

    You were supposed to buy those for the $2,000 asking price, fix them up, find a controller and then sell them to me for $500. :D

    Haven't heard the RT55's but everyone who hears them seems to really like the sound. Maybe I'll find a pair locally. Tried to buy a pair a few months back for $100 but the guy wouldn't separate them from his stupid amp and cd player.

    Had an opportunity to buy a PSW650 for $120 2 months ago and that would have sounded killer with the 800s.
