edited January 2010 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
OK guys, I was able to pick up a pair of Cherry Rti8s locally, so these R50's have to go. They are the cherry finish obviously, hence the topic. I bought these two years ago, used them for six months then boxed them up when I moved and have not had them out of the box since. They are about a 9.5 out of 10. I think one has a small ding on the back side, but that's about it. I know, I'll get them out of the boxes and post pictures asap.

I bought these from Frys.com for about $100 each with shipping. I am looking to get $120 picked up. I'm in south east PA, 19061 zipcode. Thanks.

    Nice starter towers for someone! Good way to enter the HT market...not bad in 2 channel either for the price!

    Good luck with the sale!

    Not a bad set of floorstanders. I always liked the R series for it's simplicity.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    BAF you were here at my house when you traded me your Xbox360 for my Infinity 2000.6's. That was like 4 months ago. Are you losing your mind? I know you aren't old enough to have Alzheimer yet.

    BAF go get them. You could do far worse for $120. They really come alive with some power behind them. The fact that they look great is just icing on the cake.

    They're better than your JBLs.

    They're very pretty! But though they're a wonderful entry tower they are NOT better than 'my' JBLs...which cost a lot more than R50s in 1989!

    At the price above though, they are a steal
