    That’s a good price. Grills probably aren’t available from Polk as Polk doesn’t even carry the drivers anymore. You could run them naked and clean lots or if the plastic is salvageable you could recover them.

    The kids aren't out of the house, so running naked around the house is out of the question. At least that's what my wife says.

    He means no grills. Unless you’re joking, in which case, LOL.

    Ah I see. That's why I don't have kids. I can stroll around music up, wang out, whenever I please.

    The glue on some of my Lsi had let go but it's easy enough to stretch the original fabric back over the plastic. I used rubber cement to glue things back down. Mostly the surrounds had this problem and since they're hanging on the wall, they didn't need to be perfect anyway.

    Got to see the extent of the grill damage to assess if a little rubber cement will do the trick. Hopefully they don't have holes.

    Yeah, the grills seem to be a common problem on the LSi’s. I used Schotch MAXIMUM STRENGTH ADHESIVE (at least that’s what is says on the label. :wink:
    jsfgbav5ktu8.jpg
    This stuff is STRONG. I used it to reconnect one of the tabs for my LSi’s grills, and it hasn’t given out yet. This was a few months ago, so I’m not sure it ever will.

    That sure is pretty. I saw a 7270 at a garage sale a while back. They had it hooked up, and it was anything but clean, but it sounded real sweet when it was playing.

    Is there such a thing as RT150? Seems like a good deal if it's actually RTi

    Think so. IIRC, there was a user here in the Spring asking about cutting his RT150’s in half. His username was mpitogo or something like that.

    RTi150's.
    I see they get "5 star rating" out of 5, by a lot of people. B)

    This speaker package deal + a brand new Onkyo receiver for 200.00 is a steal of a deal! :p

    That is a fair price. 200 would probably get then though. I love their sound! Kind of like the Polk LS90's.

    My old friend who I sold my Time Widows to over two years ago is still listening to them front and center. :)B)

    I had the FXi50 surrounds and they were fantastic. I'm fairly certain that's what they are mistakenly referring to as the FX150's... The center also looks like a CSi40. Also had that and it is a great center - very similar to the CS400i. That package deal is a 'run, don't walk' price.

    @la2vegas , I used this glue to fix the grills on my 25s:

    It’s held really well so far, and it’s been almost 6 months.
    Nice find!

    That LP shelf looks really nice. If that was local, and I wasn’t saving up for a power conditioner, it’d be mine. :smile:
