I'm no audiophile but I love to search for bargains like everyone else. Recently, I've had these two successes and want to know your successes as well.

1. Bought used Polk RT2000i fronts, CS400i center, FX300i rears and Velodyne CHT 15 sub for mere $550. Found these on a local Craig's list and the owner was kind enough to throw in Bello Audio Rack ($500 value), 2 pairs of solid looking speaker stands, and 100 ft 14 AWG Monster cable and 2 Monster sub cables all free. He paid close to $4000 for everything so I gotta think these were sweetest deals I've ever landed on.

2. Bought Paradigm Studio 60 V2, Studio Center V2, Titans V2, and Velodyne VA1012 sub for $700 on eBay. Could have had for $500 if it wasn't for another bidder who raised another $200 with 1 second to go. The seller was kind enough to deliver all these speakers to my home at no charge (he lived 40 miles and $20 toll away).

I'm sure there were even better deals out there, let me hear them!
