Polk RTi12's Cherry, CSi5, and FXi3 all MINT

[Chopin_Guy]

A recent move has me scaling my system down to 2.1. As such, I am selling this Polk Audio set-up to upgrade to a different set of mains. All of these speakers are in perfect undamaged condition and have never been driven all that loud as I do live in an apartment. I still have all the documentation and paperwork that came with these speakers when I purchased them new from Crutchfield just a little more than 1 year ago.

Given the size of the speakers I am looking for a sale within the Houston, TX or surrounding areas. It might be reasonable to pack and ship the center or surrounds but would be at buyers expense--however, the RTi12's are just too large to even make it reasonable.

You can see pictures of the system at the following link:

Prices are as follows and seem fair from what I have seen on Ebay and Audiogon...

RTi12's in Cherry: $600
CSi5 in Black: $200
FXi3 in Black: $200

Here's a photo to make things a bit easier...



Of course the surrounds are not pictured, but as mentioned everything is in pristine condition...

That's a tough break. I will certainly recommend this deal.

I wish I had the money I would buy these for my uncle that lives in Houston. He's a big Polk fan but only has a set of Monitor 50 atm.

Thanks man!! I am not too bummed about it actually. Moved to a much more nice and larger place, it just does not lend itself to running cables all over the place for home theater. And from what time have spent with 2-channel it's a nice change...

I'm looking to go the route of Paradigm I think for my new mains....

I'll give you guys a package deal....

For anyone interested in the set as a whole, I would be willing to take $100 off bringing it to $900 for the 5.0 set...which I think is a steal for this set of speakers....PM or post with any questions....

 

[Chopin_Guy]

Bump...$800 for the whole set....!!!

 

[jamie2112]

Thats a pretty good deal there. What Paradigms are you looking at?

 

[Chopin_Guy]

Well I have my eyes on a few different things...I heard the new Studio 60's and thought they were great. But could get a new set V.4 Studio 60's for $1,200, and someone has a set of the V.3 Studio 40's on eBay for a nice low price---so there are alot of options. I also like the S2's if I could find a good used price on a pair. I just have the itch to try something new and different I suppose, and the Paradigms sound quite nice to my ear....

If I was near Houston, TX I would definitely pull the trigger on those speakers!!!

Good luck with you sale. The RTi12's at $600 are a great bang for the buck and should make the buyer very happy.

 

[Chopin_Guy]

I would have thought of having more luck than this with these prices....proof of the market situation right now. In any event, thanks guys, and hopefully these will find a happy new home...

Hi; just came across this thread... FWIW... I placed my RTi10's and Csi5 FXi3 on craigs list (I live in Dallas) and w/in 36 hours I had over 15 emails... In the end; they sold after just the third day. Might be worth a shot

Good Luck

 

[Chopin_Guy]

I have had them on craigslist to not much luck or crazy low-ballers....I will be patient and see what happens. No point in rushing especially given the economic landscape...

 

[Chopin_Guy]

Well I have decided to change gears and keep the RTi12's for a little while. I want to give them a chance with some external amplification aside from that of my 3808. Therefore, the CSi5 and FXi3's are still for sale---not the 12's.

And I will even lower the prices on those speakers, and I will also ship as these are much smaller and can be packed well at the UPS Store:

CSI5 Black -- $150

FXi3 Pair -- $150

I will be happy to ship these and will only charge you the actual cost....no bloating for profit. PayPal will also need to add the appropriate 3% for their fess. Feel free to PM with any questions....

A33,

Thanks for the interest. I think I actually have a buyer that is going to take both the CSi5 and FXi3's at the end of the week, but if for some reason that doesn't work out I will let you know. Thanks again...
