Less than 3 months old but economic situation forces their sale. Like new condition with boxes and Behringer EQ included. Will sacrifice for $2375.

Read the reviews and prepare to be stunned. I fell in love with these at the 2011 Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in October and thought they were one of the absolute best sounds of show, regardless of price. When you consider their modest cost of $3450, it becomes even more of a staggering bargain---probably the best in audio. I've owned literally 100s of different speakers so will do my best to describe them here. They have a very clear, distinct sound (like a pair of Maggies or Martin Logans) but with the dynamics and openness of a horn speaker (but no horn colorations!). Also, due to the open baffle nature of the speaker there is no 'head in the vice' type sound. And with the Behringer you can truly remove the room from the equation to make them sound great in a small or large room. There are tons of reviews online, so I encourage you to read up on these. I would recommend a subwoofer to get a true full range sound. Lifelike and spookily 'real' are the best terms to describe these and you won't find a better price than mine so no lowballers please. This is your opportunity to have a 'cost no object' sound from a speaker you can afford. Email if interested. I have boxes for shipping but of course would prefer local audition/pickup. No flaws cosmetically or sonically.

Specs Added: Very efficient. Incredible with tube amps!
