    I never got a chance to listen to the rti150s. I always wanted to though! How are they sounding, what gear are you using?

    I end up not buying it due to some cosmetics damage to the cabinet.

    That model didn't last for all that long in the market so it's not common to see used in good condition. The veneer was a bit flakey. Was the next step after Polk abandoned the powered tower concept. I had a pair of the RTi150s for a bit less than a year until I did the awesome, but expensive for them, Circuit City full-credit free trade up for the next version of the RTi* big speakers. :#

    Fun speakers to crank.

    You posted a location, which is typical of those trying to circumvent the selling rules here.
