Is there such a thing as RT150? Seems like a good deal if it's actually RTi
https://charlotte.craigslist.org/ele/d/polk-audio-home-stereo/6675963017.html
This speaker package deal + a brand new Onkyo receiver for 200.00 is a steal of a deal!
Got them this morning. I can barely carry the towers. All in nice shape, 7 out of 10 or better.
The RTi 150 make my RT800i's look small.
-
Ooo, aaaahh!
Nice! -
The Onkyo is an entry level but is only a couple months old.
I really don't need all the speakers, just mostly wanted the surrounds to replace the RT25's I am using. -

I own the sub and a full 5. set to match but not the 1.1 I don't think.
I think it's a heck of a deal at this price too. I would offer 150.00 if I didn't already have a GREAT NHT system. That Sub NEEDS that amplifier to work properly! I see some NHT subs missing that amp and that's a shame.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

That CV pre looks cool, but I wish it had a standard IEC inlet for power cable swapping.

As much as I like Dayens gear, that Conrad Johnson is a considerable order of magnitude above the Ampino’s capabilities.

I'm talking about the Ampino Preamp that I linked, not the Ampino integrated.
-
Yes, I got that. and I still stand by what I said. There is just some gear out there that has a reputation above and beyond...those names include Pass Labs, D'Agostino, Conrad Johnson, Audio Research...
I didn't say the Ampino Pre was bad, I just think for that price bracket, a used Conrad Johnson tube pre is a much better buy. Not to mention the fun and flexibility of rolling tubes."Some people find it easier to be conceited rather than correct."

One thing to note about the Ampino and the CJ is the difference in gain. The Ampino only has 4 db while the CJ has roughly 16. Could be an issue for some.HT SYSTEM-
