    I have heard this setup in the past from a few different people
    Punches way above its price.

    I have heard this setup in the past from a few different people
    Punches way above its price.

    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.

    Yup. I've seen lots of folks make that mod where the IEC was not originally there.

    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.

    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.

    LSi9 pair: good condition, some scratches on one but placement can remedy it - $250
    LSiC: Center matches w/ the above, has some boxing on corners but still sounds perfect & looks great head on - $75
    RTi38 pair: used as the rears - $60
    Polk subwoofer: works and sounds fine, delamination of the black molding around the front - $20
    Pair of VTI stands: solid metal, adjustable, can run cables through the columns
    Pioneer SC-25: pushes plenty of power but need the sub pre-out and center out rewired $100

    Not a deal of the century but if someone is looking for some SDA2B here they are at a decent price. Maybe haggle a little.

    rt600i for $40...at least I think that's what model they are.

    "The box was opened and the speakers gently fondled by me,"


    What did the guy do??? I'm using my 703's for a music system and have a 706c in storage. I wonder if I ought to buy these just in case I end up switching my HT system over to the LSiM one day. I really didn't like that setup for HT. I think it was a synergy thing, I've done so much to warm up those RTi speakers, that those LSiM front three lacked brightness. I know those Pangea power cables really warmed things up as did the Dynamat in the AVR, plus the acoustic panels. I'm just really happy with my RTi setup for movies.

    I saw the LSi 7’s, I think that is a STEAL. Even in the rough condition they were talking about, you could totally reveneer them or something.
    The other stuff, I don’t know much about, including their value, but it does all seem to be very cheap.

    The Lsi7 would be good for spare parts as well if you had other Lsi speakers. Missing the wood panels might be a deal breaker for some.
