I thought I would never sell these but I recently picked up Ryan's Silverlines, so I need to free up some space. These speakers are Gloss black with cherry accents and are in excellent condition. They sound fantastic and are nonfatiguing. These have the Beryllium tweeters. They have performed brilliantly with every type of music I have thrown at them. They also sound great on a variety of amps I have used with them, everything from a 25 WPC Dayens to a 160 WPC Odyssey amp. The matching stands with spikes are also included.

Polkie price $1100. Local pickup in the Indianapolis area, however I am wiling to meet someone within a reasonable distance to complete the sale.

    Yes. Already a fan of Usher so when I saw Jeff put these up I said heck yes. They will be in the same room with my Magic Flutes so good company for sure. Movies will be a real treat😃 thanks Jeff for putting the final touch on my living room rig. 😉

    Had some time now to really listen to these babies and a good way for me to describe it is that when music (not noise) is playing, the room disappears for me and the music just takes over. No matter where you sit in the room it is captivating. The Aurum Cantus Magic Flutes get along so well with
    My new Ushers it’s crazy. That and they look great together in the same room! Don’t expect to see these in the flea market as they are Home. Thanks to Jeff once again. I’m thrilled.

    The Ushers are my surrounds! I tried to take a new pic to post but still getting used to this new cell phone and hung up on fresh pics.
    The Aurum Cantus and Ushers get along real nice. I won’t be able to get to em for a bit but I will get some nice pics. Basic idea in your pm
