Originally bought here a little over a year ago. I love them, but I'd like to look for new things to try out.

​Note: I will be willing to meet within 100-200 miles around Raleigh, North Carolina. I don't have the shipping containers for these anymore and am not looking to ship at this time. I'd like to get $1250 from a Polkie for them. I have them posted elsewhere for $1500.

Specs:
Frequency Response (Hz): 35-25k
Size (in.): 10w x 15d x 22h
Weight: 55 lbs ea.
Factory Direct Price: $3,600 US/pr.

The Linbrook Signature Monitors use a Seas Excel T25CF-002 1" tweeter and two 7" Seas Excel W18E001 magnesium cone midranges. These drivers are among the fastest and most detailed drivers in the world. This makes the Linbrook system ultra fast and open sounding with a huge soundstage. These are the same drivers that can be found in speakers costing up into the 5-digit range. The OEM price of the drivers (through Madisound) actually totals up to just over $1450.

Cabinet construction is 1.5" MDF all around with a front-firing port (located below the drivers), Polyfill stuffing, and a beautiful walnut veneer . Dual binding posts on back for bi-wiring or bi-amping, with bridge included.

Crossovers use Hovland Musicaps, Solen caps, and Alpha Core inductors on top of other audiophile-quality parts and wiring.

Functional quality is perfect - I have never had a single issue with them. The veneer has some small scuffs in places from moving, but it does nothing to affect the sound, and they are entirely inoffensive. On the Audiogon scale, I'd rate them a conservative 7/10 based primarily on age.

Also included in this sale is a set of Tyler Acoustics Model 1 stands. Retail price is around $400 from Ty. The stands have no notable discoloration, scuffs, etc. and match the dimensions of the monitors perfectly.

I can provide more pictures if desired. Attached is a picture from the previous sale and a picture of them in my system; I need to take some more for myself.

    See that one has a relatively large scuff on the side, but they are otherwise in very good condition.

    I'm also excited to see what Trey does with them. I've been playing with the idea of upgrading the crossovers for a while, but I don't have the cash to spare right now. I'll just live vicariously through Trey. :twisted:

    The four hour drive allowed me to map it all out - things will happen, minds will be blown... :)
