Burning through gear lately, I know. The scratches on the bottom of the speakers came from the previous owner using them on the spiked stands without any protection.

100% fully functional. Sound stunning and are unbelievably balanced. These are version 1.

$800 + shipping. Paypal gift. Prefer local pickup.

    Why are you getting rid of these? They are both small and WAF freindly which is why you got rid of the SDA's.....

    No, what's funny is that you feel the need to take this thread out of context. I have something for sale, leave it at that. Move on man, seriously.

    Mods, please keep an eye on yet another one of my for sale threads.

    Since the feedback system is down, here are a few recent successful transactions:

    I could careless but it's annoying you ask for help to turn around and sell it. People tried to help you with stands and with your sda and your answer is just to sell. It's a slap in the face to those who try to help you.

    Good luck selling whatever you have seeing you prob won't have the x stats for more than a week

    You think the SDA's had a less than favorable WAF. Wait till you set up the Strata's. You'll be sleeping in the doghouse for sure.

    GLWTS. Nice price on these speakers.

    I'm sure he won't have them long enough to get in trouble. I predict those will be gone asap too. I've heard other speakers in that line, nothing at all to write home about.

    Hahaha. You're probably right. As long as I have my SDA's by my side I don't have to hold on to a secondary pair too tightly :wink:

    What else have you heard in the line and what didn't you like about them?

    I'm just happy they are not the glossy Rosewood model, which look hideous to me. If I end up liking them I may try to refinish them to a darker color.

    I thought these would be gone by now! Okay, okay, to entice a sale I'm now including an extra pair of eKs Kable 2 Channel Silver Plated RCA 1M interconnects, locking, by KnuKonceptz ($40 value).

    I see, so others can make way off topic comments in your FS thread but I'm the only one you single out as classless. I guess you would know.

    My offer is actually serious! I mean... that just seems like a crazy to turn down deal if he will do that.
