I still love the looks of the RT series.

For someone local, not a bad deal for the money. Decent all purpose speakers. I used LS50's for side surround speakers for awhile. Someone could part these out perhaps. I know the drivers and tweeters can be used also in the LS90's.
-
+1, looks like a decent deal for someone starting a HT system?

Very cool! If I didn't already have 2Bs, I might go look at them myself.
Left Maui 1:30 pm yesterday, arrived in Columbus 12:30 pm today. Do note there is a 6 hour time difference, still a long flight. Made arrangements to see the 2B's and drove 140 mile round trip to pick them up. Excellent condition with all the original paperwork and manuals. He wanted $300.00 for them and I did not dicker, too tired and I wanted them. Sound excellent, now time for some shuteye and back to the grind tomorrow.

I was thinking in the $700-800 range max. I am not interested in bringing home any more large speakers, just wanted to pass this along. I'm supposedly a hoarder (collector) already.
