Polk SRT question

I recently came across a strange deal. SRT center speaker sitting on the shelf at a local Polk dealer. It's enormous. I'd like to get it but don't know where I would put the darn thing. Does anyone have any experience as to how they sound or any likes/dislikes? What are these selling for now days? They seem willing to bargain but I'd like to know what the market says before I try to negotiate with them. Thanks much.

    The manager was out to lunch and he was the fellow who did the pricing. Didn't these retail for some large $$? It's a new speaker too. With the age and all I was wondering what a fair offer might be.

    The center speaker is worth about $250-$300.
    Which polk series speakers are you planning on using this center with?

    Not exactly the best match for the 2.3tls but worth a try.
    The SRT center is a better match for the LS/RT series and of course the SRT series.

    Yeah, if you could find a set of 4 RT16's to go with it for mains and surrounds, that would be a great setup. I just sold a pair of near perfect RT16's for a couple hundred bucks.
