Check out Fry's at moderately distant locations. I drove 45m each way and snagged an LSiC for $250 this weekend, whereas the last one on eBay went for $450 (used). Just sayin'

sorry that should have been one word: "monoprice"
darn you spell-checker!

I've had good success with mono price cables. working well with my two Epik subs.

interesting

Don't play games.

I couldn't find formal mention in the previous posts in this thread of an announcement date. Is it supposed to be this coming Monday? As you can see, I've got a bit of investment in the "previous"...

Consider a Epik Dynasty. I have 4X LSi15s Front & Surrounds, an LSiC Center, and vintage Model 10's in the rear... all on top of the Dynasty "foundation". Really really happy... totally awesome...

Totally agree. I have a pair of vintage model 10's (circa '79) and THREE pairs of vintage 7's. (also an LSI based "main system".)
On the old polks I've had to replace only two drivers amongst...

Ethancf:
You may (or may not!) find the Denon 3803 lacks the backbone to drive the LSi25's adequately when you crank things up. This particular AVR doesn't seem to be rated for 4 ohm loads (you...

Yeah, I'm running 200WPC "c.w." to my LSi15's -- 400WPC IHF dynamic power, to be exact. Actually, my grilles are fine, but the eardrums are gradually becoming detached. Would you recommend...

Tempted, but I like TOTALLY trust the Polk Audio Direct folks. So I guess I'll wait to bid on the next pair up on eBay from them.

Sorry for the delayed response, Mike --
Yes, I most certainly read about that reported "blue dot" pathology and worried quite a bit about it. But, truly... I cannot tell that there is any blue...

One man's saga with replacement of an LSi mid-range driver

Despite assurances from a very, very nice fellow at Polk Customer Service that mid-range driver replacement in my LSi15 would be "piece...

Dear fellow polk-dudes:
Hmm. First, a question -- can the term "dude" be construed as gender-neutral? I certainly meant no untoward bias in my greeting!

So here's the final installment. I...

Thanks much, treitz3!

Yes, I've completely localized it now to the upper mid-range driver on the R unit. I can put my finger (lightly) on the butyl support of the driver and stop the auditory...

Wow. I knew Monsters were a rip-off, but this takes things to another plane. What's the deal?

Friends--
Just received a pair of LSi15's from PolkDirect Store on eBay yesterday. Great interaction with them, ultra-fast shipping, and the units look almost pristine. Sadly, discovered last...

Regarding the Onkyos... I bought the TX-SR606B from Amazon recently - I loved it 98%, but it had significant hum with Audyssey engaged with Blu-Ray. This is a well documented problem with this...

Thanks, leroyjr1. You're to be commended on your willingness to go the extra mile.

For all those other forum "listeners" out there, I contacted "Mailboxes, Etc." and got the following quote PER...

OK, I'll check it out. If you'd like me to contact you directly once I know the score, send me your e-mail or phone by a Polk forum private message. Otherwise, I'll post here again tomorrow with...

If you let me know which one is closest, I'll call tomorrow morning and see if this all makes sense cost-wise. OK with you? Would you be willing to drop them off?

BTW I pulled out and replaced a mid several years ago on my Model 10's (vintage '78). I can't recall if...

leroyjr1 if you give me your zip, I'll look up a local shipper and see what it'll cost me. would you be willing to pull out the mid-range drivers and ask them to pack them separately? thanks

leroyjr1 Would you be willing to drop them off at your local "mailboxes, etc." for shipment? (They would box them up & everything on my dime.)
BTW (first...) -- has anyone out there had any bad...
