I am looking for $275 + shipping from 22204 (should be around 30 lbs). Of course local pick up (including the Friday of Polkfest) is available with a discount for cash. They look brand new as far as I can tell. I will post pictures tomorrow. They look like these: http://www.vanns.com/shop/servlet/item/features/543715648/kef-q100-bookshelf-speakers?v_c=Nextag&gdftrk=gdfV22976_a_7c2123_a_7c6582_a_7c543715648.

I liked the speakers a lot. They are just too big for where I ended up wanting to use them, so they are sitting unused for the last few weeks. They also need a little more room to breathe than you would think front ported speakers would need. (Although, this seemed to be a lot less of an issue when I tried them with a 80 Hz crossover.)

    I forgot to mention that for a non-local sale PayPal is preferred, and I will cover the fees on my end. Also, I don't have the original container(s), but I do have the box they were sent to me in which was more than adequate. They were purchased as new from an online authorized dealer (Vanns), but for some reason they did not have the original containers. (I forget the explaination, but it made sense.) They will be fully insured for the purchase price when shipped.

    Here are the photos:

    They are a great speaker; just not the right size for me. It is hard to appreciate how deep the cabinet is for a small speaker until you see them from that angle. They are a little deeper than the lsi7s, but 1-2" shorter and less wide than the lsi7s.

    Are you looking for bigger? The Q300 is a brute for the money.

    No, I was looking for smaller, or at least between the time I order them and received them, I realized I needed smaller speakers. I still used them for a while, and kept trying to find a place to use them permanently. They were not able to unseat the speakers that I am using in my two main systems (the other speakers were priced a lot higher than the Q100s, so that makes sense), and I (or maybe my wife) scrapped my plans to add a bedroom system where the Q100s would have been perfect. Mostly though I just have too many speakers right now.

    Please mark as sold. I worked out a trade/sale with FACE for smaller speakers.
