FOR SALE: SPENDOR SP1/2 Speakers

Superb monitors in the classic BBC tradition.

Update of, and superior to (in most folks estimation) the classic Spendor BC1.

24 x 12 x 12 inches. These come with massive (and expensive) Target stands.

Fantastic condition. Look really closely and you can see a few dinks/scuffs, but the overall impression screams "MINT"
The grilles are also in excellent condition.

See review from Absolute Sound scribe Robert E Greene http://www.regonaudio.com/SpendorSP12Loudspeakers.html

See review at Enjoy The Music http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0302/spendor12.htm

Lots of other reviews - all very positive I think - just Google it!

I do not have boxes .... so pickup from Gloucestershire (Lydbrook) or I may be able to meet up or deliver around the south (e.g. Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Portsmouth, Reading, Oxford ...).

Now on eBay. Note: stands not included.

Will consider swaps, p/ex (anything hifi may be of interest:))

Fantastic speakers and a veritable bargain, in my opinion.

I used a pair of these for years before upgrading to SP100s. They're good all-rounders, but for Jazz, Classical, or female vocalist lovers they would be absolutely sublime.

They boast one of the best midrange in the business as the 'supertweeter' and midrange unit combine to give voices and instruments uncanny realism. The 8" bass unit gives nice weight to low frequencies, too - much better than the puny 6-inchers you get today on bijou floorstanders!

Good luck with the sale, Jerry. Someone is in for a treat :)
