The RM7400T floor-standing speakers were first available in late 2004 and originally retailed for around $575 for a pair. They can now, likely, be found for significantly less. A higher end version with upgraded specs is available in the PM8000T/RM50T.

I think these are a great deal on Woot for $299.99 today. They have a high WAF, and will likely have decent audio performance. Great for a starter system on the cheap.
