Yep, my precious MIT speaker cables are for sale! Crazy I know!!!

But - it is what it is and I think it is time to try something else!

These have the IConn ends so they can be spades or Banana..

This is what replaced these cables by MIT -

http://www.mitcables.com/available-online/shotgun-s2.3-bi-wire-speaker-cable.html

I believe these cables retailed at $1,600.00

I went to Audiogon to see what these are selling for and I could not find a single used set. So I guess that is a good sign...

Basically 700 shipped in like new condition. I have the original packaging, manuals, blank warranty cards... you name it...

I even have the original tape on the plastic bags they come in that I can reapply to the bags.

On top of that the box they come in will be put in ANOTHER box with its own packaging to ensure the box remains as fresh as possible...

So yep - $700.00 SHIPPED + paypal fees

Oh yeah these are 8 ft in length

    Thanks guys! :)

    If they dont go this week I will most likely pull them from here and list them exclusively on Audiogon or Ebay and charge significantly more :)

    Thanks

    I'd just go ahead and get them listed Trey as they will move pretty quickly on Audiogon if you price them right.

    Id like to keep these cables in the "family" so to speak - they are awesome.

    Will wait a little longer.

    That's a steal for a bi-wired pair! Good luck with the sale. Hopefully a Polkie will give them a good home before a total stranger gets them on the 'gon.

    Thanks man! They have been a great addition to the rig for many years...

    I have gone on the record saying I would never replace them and well - guess you can never say never!

    You should "note to self" and never say that again. You sound like Solid Squal now, Mr. "I've found the best ever....and will sell it next month after the statement comes in"

    Yeah but the only problem with that is I had these cables for THREE years which is unheard of for me...

    Just like my Odyssey gear -- its birthday gear man... will be here a while... ;)
