Well, not exactly... it is $10 for a raffle ticket for a benefit event where two pairs of b stock Martin Logan Purity are among the prizes. The benefit is for a Martin Logan (ML) employee who is fighting cancer and ML donated the prizes. The winner will have to pick the speakers up direct from ML in Kansas, or pay to have them shipped. They come with a full warranty. The tickets can be had with a PayPal payment plus 50 cents for postage to mail you the ticket(s). Drawing is soon, so act fast if interested. Thought this might appeal to the group for both the audiophile and the charitable sides in each of us.

    I inquired about purchasing tickets and just hear back from zdevin at hotmail dot com... he said "Hi- You can buy as many tickets as you want. To cover pay pal fees and postage of your tickets to you, you need to add 3% and an additional $0.80. For 1 ticket it would be $11.10, 2 = $21.40, 3 = 31.70, etc...
    Regards and thanks for donating!" If you see a pair of Martin Logan Purity's in the flea market in a couple of weeks, you will know why ;)

    I've owned ML's for years, had several conversations with employees from Jim Power to the receptionist, all have been beyond pleasant experiences, first rate, first class company all the way! I'm donating in the name of someone who lost their battle with cancer.

    My thoughts and prayers to Rick and his family, thanks for the heads yp on this!

    That's where the company is located. I'm sure the majority of raffle entries were from locals friends/family.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...
