rayians Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hello all. I'm looking to upgrade my 4 - R-5800-C in ceiling speakers that I've been using as surrounds. I am looking for a better match for my RF-83's and RC-64. I believe my best avenue will be 2 pair of RS-62's (1st gen). I'd prefer to pick up but would be willing to work out shipping with the seller. I am located in Northeast PA, zip code 18224. Thank you all for your help!!

TasDom Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I belive my best avenue will be 2 pair of RS-62's (1st gen). Doesn't say if they will part out or ship but maybe worth a shot. Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I bet a nice email explaining the need for 6 rs-62 being un needed would convince them selling one pair to you. Then I would shoot for a set of rb-61, or rb-81's for your rear surrounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayians Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 I emailed ysterday afternoon on Tasdom's suggestion. So far, no response whatsoever. My guess is he's not willing to break up the set and/or not willing to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayians Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 I'm still searching everywhere I know to - craigslist nationwide search, ebay, audiogon, avsforum, and of course on here several times per day. Does anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Lots of patience or go with the newer generation. Prolly wouldn't hurt to inquire about the new ones. I like the look of the newer ones. If I could fit the newer grill on my old ones I would. There are a few guys on here I think that are running newer rears with rf-63/83's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayians Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 I actually found 4 RS-62's at a reasonable price on Craigslist in Jackson, MS, but the guy is not willing to ship. Is anyone near Jackson, MS willing to play courier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted February 1, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2013 The RS-62's would round out your system nicely rayians. Hopefully a forum member can hook you up and may be interested in buying the second pair. Just an FYI, those are not the version II as his ad states, they are original RS-62's. $700 plus shipping seems a bit high. Are you able to negotiate a better price?

Moderators Youthman Posted February 1, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2013 Is it $350 for each pair or for each speaker? If it is $350 for the pair, yes, that's a good buy, even with shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayians Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 He's asking $350 for each speaker. The average price on a used pair of these is about $600 for the pair, so he's not out of line. If I can find a way to physically acquire them I am sure I can get a better deal if I am willing to buy all 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayians Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Thank you to all the forum members who helped me find the 1st pair. I'm still on the hunt for a 2nd pair, so keep your eyes peeled for me! Thanks again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
