This was the Canadian Company Energys’ flagship speaker, prior to the RC series. Zero flaws, excellent condition. No nicks, rubs, pulls, scratches, dents---zero, nada. Smoke-free, child-free home. I’ve owned them for about 3-4 years, bought new. I have the manuals, but the boxes are gone. With their slightly laid-back treble and high efficiency, I think these would be spectacular with tubes. Tired of digital glare? Here's your speaker. Grills are magnetically attached for easy removal and no wear.

$500/pr

I'll post some pics tonight, but they are perfect both electronically and physically. Mint minus age/use.

    "Out of town package"

    I can hold these for out-of-town buyers who may be passing thru at a later date. That would also include dinner/beer drinking, and spending the evening with 2 incredibly cool people. :D

    Ok. So we all want to know Steve. What's next?

    These are some pretty unique speakers. You should not have any problem selling them.

    I haven't totally committed yet, but I've all but talked myself into Dynaudio. I'm also considering Salk SongTower QWT's--but I've got a serious itch to go bookshelf/monitor this time.

    The worse my left ear gets, the more sensitive it is to midrange tone/qualities--so I'm looking for something that excels in the midrange...well, we all know Dynaudio's lineage in this area.

    These are pretty darn nice units. If someone is looking for some skinnier towers that punch above their weight and driver compliment, these could certainly be for you. The highs are nice but certainly not too bright.

    Steve takes good care of his gear so they will be as described, most likely better. Steve and Bev are great hosts so if you are an out-of-towner, enjoy the warm hospitality.
