Moderators Youthman Posted September 27, 2012 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2012 Sounds almost like you say heck no don't drive that far then turn around and say go for it lol. I thought it was pretty clear..." I definitely would not do it for a 10hr trip, maybe not even a 5hr trip. ". I guess "maybe" should have been "probably". In other words, it definitely is not the deal of the century to be driving 5 - 10hrs for a pair that has cosmetic issues. Best of luck to both of you if you decide to work out a deal together.

derrickdj1 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Buying from fellow forum members almost always means that the equipment has been well taken care of both functionally and cometically! And, they usually sell at a fair or better than fair price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went 17 hrs round trip for mine, thankfully they were flawless as described [Y] and as gas prices go it is the equivilent of making a 5 hour trip now... [:@] Good luck on striking a deal for the 83s There are definitely few and far between on the market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted September 28, 2012 Moderators Share Posted September 28, 2012 I went 17 hrs round trip for mine Wow, that's dedication. I think my wife would want to put me in a nut house if I told her I needed to make a 17hr round trip for speakers. LOL I know there are plenty of guys that do though. Let us know if it works out between you guys. I always like seeing forum members meet up, put a name to a face, check out each other's gear. Many times, it just ends up being a great experience and a win/win for both parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted September 28, 2012 Moderators Share Posted September 28, 2012 I figured it was referring to drinking, just didn't know why. LOL. Little slow (and I haven't been drinking).

Consider the -83/-64 combo sold to a Houston resident pending a meet and pay.I wonder what TV speakers sound like, it's been a while.

eagle98 Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 I got the 83s and the 64 from USNRET today. That was a pretty easy drive to get what I've been wanting. I set them up and they sound amazing!! I'm using my old Bose acoustimass subwoofer for bass right now, and even with that little POS, the system sounds frickin sweet! I need a real subwoofer now. Thanks. I'll post pics when I get everything set up. I still need some surrounds. The RS-7s were a bit too big for my walls. Anyone got some old RS-62s or RS-52s they want to sell me?

Eagle Congrats on the 83s, make sure to get a beast of a sub [6] If the rs7s are to big your in for a problem with 52s or 62s both are quite big and 62s should be about 2x larger than 7s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted October 4, 2012 Moderators Share Posted October 4, 2012 congrats on the new aquisition! the rf-83s will provide a great amount of bass until you can find a good sub. just set them to Large in your receiver.
