    Default For sale - Snell j/II speakers and stands

    Snell j/II speakers in black.

    Beautiful condition.

    Consecutive serial numbers.

    Grills excellent.

    Cabinets excellent.

    Drivers excellent.

    Sensitivity 92 db, so excellent/renowned with valve amps.

    I had no intention of selling these, as for the price it just wasn't worth it.

    But one knackered gearbox forces sale.

    I have the original boxes, in very good condition, but this is collection onlly.

    Silver Atacama SL400 speaker stands included if required. Excellent condition. filled with loose stone chips. very heavy.

    Reduced to £450.

    Collection from Grantham.

    Difficult to take photos in black as the flassh makes them look faded.
    They are not. They look and sound superb.

    Hi Philip,
    Any chance considering a sale abroad (i.e. Greece)?

    I am seriously interested if the speakers are in such good condition as you saying. Snells usually suffer from tweeter dome cracking and woofers need refoaming.

    Thanks

    Thanks for your interest, but i really don't like to send speakers or anything with large transformers by post.
    Too many bad experiences with damage.
    Even with original boxes.

    They are as in good condition as they look.

    Surprised these are still here.

    Wonderful, especially with valves.

    And rarely come up for sale here in tne uk, for good reason.

    For those wishing to move up from snell or audionote k, well worth it imho.

    Supposedly a fuller sounding speaker than tne equivalent audionote.

    Overall, very neutral and musical.
