    Default For Sale - AVALON ASCENDANT Speakers

    Finished in Maple I have a pair of the mark 1's available.

    They do come with M8 spikes which aren't shown in the images. I will try to get more pics up soon.

    Here's a link to my current eBay listing price £2500 but this is negotiable to to a discerning Art of Sounder

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/332472117...84.m1558.l2649

    Here's a description anyway;
    Absolutely outstanding pair of speakers which originally retailed at @ £12000

    I could wax lyrical about them but of course I would do that wouldn't I. Instead here's a review of the speakers that I feel describes them pretty accurately.

    There is fading to the cabinets as with most Avalon speakers because they are designed to be used with the grilles in place. When this is done, they look perfect.

    I do not have original boxes so collection from Muswell Hill north London is required.

    I am considering making some shipping crates so they could be delivered. These speakers are extremely heavy (32kg each) so really reluctant to do this. Please contact me to discuss this option.

    Of course, any further information you may require will be provided so please get in touch.

    Richard. Please include better photos. The right way up would be good and larger even better. It's a forum requirement. Thanks.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Here's one. Resized, rotated and sharpened a bit. Have a bash at doing more. At least your listing is now compliant.

    some avalon ascendants in this vid
    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
