Mirage OM-6 I got from a friend of mine. He's had them in their original boxes for about the last 5 years. Cosmetically, just about perfect. No snags or anything on the grilles or grille sock. I've hooked them up for a careful listen, and they sound great. But as I put my ear to each of the drivers, I heard the voice coil rubbing on one of the 4 woofers, so I've ordered an identical replacement ($146 plus shipping!) which should be here in a week.

Original carton and styrofoam is included, but there is no manual. Four of the eight brass feet for hard floors are included - new ones can be ordered from Mirage for $12.50 each. Otherwise you can use the included spikes. Threads are standard if you want to use something else.

IEC power cords for the built-in amps not included

$650, here until the new woofer arrives, then likely off to the 'gon. Local pickup encouraged, but I'm willing to ship them. The box holds both speakers, and has a UPS tag from their original shipping when new that says it weighs 132 lbs., the box is 27x48x14. I could ship using my FedEx account for actual cost.

Here is the stereophile review:

Matching surrounds and center also available.
ETA: That white line is a photo artifact.

    It's amazing how many threads here in which I saw people jumped in with "ooh" and "aah" but then finished with "However I could not buy it." I mean WTF! If you don't intent to buy it, just keep your mouth shut! This is the Classifieds area for people to interact and for the purpose of selling and buying, not a place to learn that you could not make a purchase :p Keep that piece of info for yourself only :D

    I don't think a little envy can hurt a FS thread as long as it eventually ends up in a sale. You're new, give it some time, you'll see a pleasant dynamic here.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    The new woofer is here, so the condition is pretty much 9/10 - very very nice. They have only 4 of the original 8 brass feet, though (as previously mentioned). I imagine that shipping to Australia would cost a fortune.

    I have been buying quite a bit of stuff from the US and findling DHL quite reasonable? Still interested if you are.

    Do the speakers have an external switch to accept 230 240 volt power?
