With great sadness I've got to start the selloff of some gear. If these sell then I'll move on to the rest. These have been my favorite speakers that I've owned. These are the black with cherry trim. Picked them up from Kerry. There is a nick in the rear of one of them otherwise in great condition.

There are some very nice reviews on the web. Posted one below.

$650. Can help deliver within a reasonable distance of Northern Illinois

    I am SO glad I am currently broke.

    Sad you have to let these guys go.

    These would look great in your upstairs once you get your theater done and move everything down there....

    $650 for these is insane. They play well above that price point IMO and they are fantastic looking speaker.


    FYI: I have the matching center channel that I could sell if anyone wants a front stage. Not actively looking to sell it, but I'm not currently able to use it so it's boxed up right now.*


    *I added this to possibly help these sell if someone wanted them for H/T. If this is inappropriate please delete.

    I’m guessing those were mine. Have regretted selling them ever since, even though I dont have a good place for them anymore. If I were closer, I would buy them.

    Very much worth the price. Someone should jump on these.

    I did, in fact, purchase these from Craig (vcwatkins). They ended up costing me an extra $200 because of the speeding ticket I got in West Virginia on my way to picking them up. I loved them. Very hard to find ANYTHING near this price that will compete with them. Even with the extra $200 add on they were worth every penny.

    I’ve wanted a pair of these for a very long time and I’m actually “local” being in St. Louis. I don’t have the cash though. Gorgeous speakers. I hope someone grabs them soon. If everyone who’s had them regrets selling them, they are likely a no brainer and possibly an end game speaker for some.

    Perhaps you could wing it if you sold something in your sig.

    These paired with the very McCormack halo has was a nice pairing, very "live" sound. I sold them to move up the Usher chain.

    Well, unless $$$ falls from the sky and into my lap, there's no way I can afford these beautiful speakers at this time. :( I've no doubt that the pairing would sound amazing

    I wanted these when Skip had a pair listed, but I just don’t have a room that can accommodate them. I have a feeling I would love the sound...

    Thats where I'm stuck too... they need too much space from the wall to sound good, an I aint got enough space in the loft.... they'd be nearfield lol.....

    I had them in a 12x12 room with the rear port about 2.5 feet from the wall. Back of my chair was about 2.5 feet from the wall which gave me about 5-6 feet from the face of the speaker to listening position and I though they were really good. Would have loved to have had another 1-2 foot each direction, but, they still sounded really nice.
