I am looking for a pair of Polk RTi A3 speakers. The suggested retail for a pair is $399.

I am sure I can't mention discounted prices here, so I won't, but I will say that I can get a new pair in a "factory sealed' box with free shipping for alot less than $399.

Has anyone here ever done any business with AcousticSoundDesign ?

    FWIW, I think they are reputable. The LSi line is discounted with free shipping

    I ordered one thing from them and had no issues. You can get 15% off with the TV15 code.

    Well, I just ordered the RTi A3s from AcousticSoundDesign with the 15% discount code ... Saved me 60 bucks!

    Had I known they had a 15% discount, I would have more than likely ordered a pair of the RTi A7s from them too, but I ordered the A7s on the Polk eBay site yesterday. Refurbished for $700 ... but they did charge me $42 in tax, which I was hoping I didn't have to pay since my shipping address is Florida .. oh well

    Now I am only hoping that those "refurbished" speakers don't have a big scratch running down the side of them!

    Ron,

    I recently purchased a complete Polk LSi series from Mike Embers at Acoustic Sound Design. These speakers are AWESOME!!!! I saved A LOT! The transaction was seamless and my speakers were delivered in less than five days (to Texas). Would recommend calling him now or go to acousticsounddesign.com.
