Designed by resident speaker guru Scottmoose and built by our very own master craftsman Colin Topps for sale are my Sachiko with Fostex 208 and super tweeter.
To ensure continued domestic harmony I need to get something smaller. If you have a big room then nothing, I repeat nothing, will move air like these do! As you'd expect from a quality driver like the 208 there's no shortage of finesse and detail either; they can literally make your hair stand on end and at > 96 db efficient they are great with anything class A or even low powered valve stuff.
Built from executive grade cherry pre-veneered baltic birch ply sheets and biscuit jointed for extra strength these are one solid set of cabs, no resonating panels here, they weigh in at 70kg each and are 6ft tall, L-pads and quality binding posts on the rear.
Included are Fostex 208 drivers and FT17H super tweeters.
I have seen these for sale for big big money in the the US, I've priced them at £1000; believe me, this doesn't even cover material costs.
Please check with the better half before buying (don't make the same mistake as me) or better still, build you own listening room ;)
I can arrange collection, or meet half way as long as you can be flexible on timings.
