    Finally the Magnepan LRS I had ordered on July 6 arrived a couple of days ago (November 19). I unpacked and set them up, and... the wife HATES them. She literally said they look "evil" and so in order to keep the peace I am selling them, along with the Magna Risers Airborne stands I had purchased for them. The speakers have been used about 10 minutes (that's minutes, not hours - the wife complained so much when I was trying them out that I finally gave up).

    While I can return the speakers and stands for a refund, I would prefer not to hassle with shipping so if anyone is interested in these and lives in the Los Angeles area (I'm in the San Gabriel Valley), I'd rather sell them with local pickup (or if you're not too far away I can deliver).

    Everything is still pristine and I have repackaged them in their original materials. Right now the wait is about 18 weeks if ordered new from Magnepan so get yourself an early Christmas present and pick up some barely used ones.. $850 cash for the speakers and stands, or make a reasonable offer. Please send me a PM if interested.

    Guessing the fancy stands add a bit more as they appear to be non OEM...

    I also don’t keep up on prices so maybe it’s not the deal I thought it was lol...

    Yep, 650 + 229 for the stands. $879. I bet those would be great paired with the right subwoofer, or pair of subs.

    Actually, depending on the type of music, you don't need a sub. My LRS sound great on everything except large scale orchestral music. They say the stands help with Bass production and soundstage expansion.

    That would make a killer bi amp as well. Just leave the 5th channel off.

    FS PAIR JBL CINEMA SPEAKERS MODEL 4670

    https://www.avsforum.com/threads/fs-pair-jbl-cinema-speakers-model-4670.3174526/

    Gently used pair of 4670's, only ever been in a home theater and never saw commercial use. I ran these bi-amplified with active crossover and i do not have the passive network. You'll need a dsp/active xo like a DBX Driverack/Behringer DCX2496 or similar.

    Pair JBL 4508 Bass Bins
    Four JBL 2226 15" Woofers
    Pair JBL 2080 Horns
    Pair JBL 2446 Compression Drivers

    I'm selling them to make room for pending and future speaker projects.

    I have another pair of JBL Cinema speakers that i'll post later today but the cabinets are pretty scuffed up:
    Pair of 4508 BassBins
    Four JBL 2035 15" Woofers
    Pair JBL 2384 Horns
    Pair JBL 2453H-SL Compression Drivers--bought new this year!
    no xo

    I'm asking $1000 per pair, pick up in Southern New Hampshire. If you want these shipped, i'll be happy to secure them to a pallet for your freight company to pick up at your cost. I can also deliver within a couple hours drive of me, for the price of gas and lunch :)

    PM me with questions. I don't want to part these out at this time but if you're dying for a specific component, make me an offer :)

    Thanks for looking!

    Seems like a whole lotta speaker for $1K. Anyone know how they'd be in a home environment? The active XO stuff is unknown territory for me. Not interested, just curious.

    Edit to add...looks like something that should be in the @mhardy6647 man cave. In south New Hampshah. Wine and dine the man and he'll deliver.

    Yeah Man! That would get the job done nicely! There are some cool HT amps that have been on the wish list for ages. Bryston rebranded Lexicon amps, the Harmon made Lexicon amps, or the old Proceed AMP 5. All are just killer amps!

    They look like Polk speakers, not JBL.

    Do believe they were his "budget" amp design.
    Yes, the AMP 5 I listed uses some of the ML technology, has five separate power supplies, weighs over 100lbs and was $5K waay back when. That's a chunk of change but much cheaper than ML.

    Anyway, here's a nice deal that someone in the Bay area should move on.

    B&K Ref 7270 7 ch amp, Ref 30 A/V pre/pro, + Bonus Velodyne sub - $500!

    No Affil.

    I always thought these were British for some reason. From Long Island, NY.

    This one looks like it was purchased in kit form.

    Belt drive, not idler. Looks to be in great condition too.
