    Default World Audio Designs WAD WD25T XL speakers

    Now £SOLD - need the space. Superb speakers.

    See pics for condition. Superb sounding with their sealed box design.

    Conflicting reports online but said to be 92dB and 6 ohm. I find them very easy to drive.

    Good bits:
    1) Speaker raised off plinth a couple on MM sitting on steel washers (to isolate but can be easily removed)
    2) Added 3 Rose Wood domed feet to keep em stable and easy to move about
    3) The original ClarityCap PX capacitors (WAD branded them Soni-Q) have been upgraded to ClarityCap ESA
    4) Large value electrolytic capacitor now a film capacitor of the JB variety (all that would fit)
    5) Resistors upgraded to Mills

    Big improvement in detail, bass notes more accurate etc.

    Not so good points:
    1) some sun damage on top of the one speaker seen in the photo
    2) some small blemishes to the bass drivers as seen in the photos

    I have the original binding posts bi-wire link connectors.

    Due to size these are collection only from Gloucester.

    £450 bargain.

    Close offers? Sound superb and happy to demo.
    Also can meet halfway for del/collect. (Say an hour or so from Glos).

    Are you sure?
    That will be the Paris/Orleans area from a quick calculation.

    They look like excellent value for money, and I wish you good luck with the sale.

    I reckon some big russian oil in paper caps would really get your virgin box sounding good :-)
