    Excellent price, fantastic speakers. I would do it in a heartbeat. Make sure you have an amplifier to drive them though.

    You will NOT get a better speaker for the price. I had them, sold them, miss them.

    I have to agree. Had a chance to listen to these last year. They, instantly, became one of my favorite bookshelves, they do almost 'everything' well! Nice price!

    Good Luck with the sale! I am, appropriately, envious!

    How do the Contour 1.3 MKIIs compare to a Contour 1.4?

    They look like completely different animals...cabinet layout is totally different...what about the sound?
