Indeed, it is a requirement that you post photos of the actual item you are selling, as it is also a requirement that you enter your first name in your profile, unless of course you are actually named Conan, in which case things have advanced quite a bit since I last visited Cimmeria ;)

Crom... :mad:

Hi,

My name is already on the profile on the top right of my posts. It is actually Carlos.:)

As for Conan, it is not the one from Cimmeria but the boy from the future (my avatar) an early Hayao Miyazaki's creation (for the ones who like that stuff)

So it is, begging your pardon good sir. A trip to Specsavers now booked... :D

Ah, THAT Conan... :scratch: :lol:

Loved my RS3's, had to spend significantly more to better them.
Bargain for someone.

Good luck with the sale, great price especially for the Piano Black finish, which Rega charge an arm and a leg for!

Conan
22-03-2014, 22:48
Thanks Gazjam.

They are really special and beautiful to look at.
One curious thing I noticed about them is that the work with Naim as well as with tubes, not to mention the Rega amps.
Models with the piano gloss finish don't come around very often (same thing with the RS1s)
Sad to see them go

Final price £425

Cant beat that for a pair of speakers of this calibre and you know it;)

I think that it is an excellent deal for the buyer.

If I don't sell them for this price, I might as well keep them:)

Conan

Would consider swapping these with stand mounts to work in small room (royd, n-sats, rs1s or neat motives

Gazjam
29-03-2014, 22:22
wtf these still not sold?!

Guys, these are fantastic speakers and as good as your going to get under a grand (If you value music over "hifi" nonsense) Its Rega.

Bargains like this don't come up often.

I've heard Rich's RS3's they have me baffled (no pun intended)..they really do have a big big sweet sound..for the size of the drivers..these will not disappoint..

Ideally I would prefer these to be collected from my house in Walsall West Midlands.
If you would prefer for these to be shipped over, you would have to make the arrangements as I have never sent anything this big.

Gazjam

Have you advertised elsewhere mate?
Hifi Wigwam, Pinkfish Media, AV Forums etc?

These are a BARGAIN, cast your net wider!
You have PM.

Conan
31-03-2014, 21:54
Thanks

I have got them on Pinkfish as well.
If I don't sell them for this I might as well keep them in the loft next to the other stuff (I'm becoming a bit of a hifi hoarder...:mental:)

I'm not desperate for money, so no rush

Gazjam
31-03-2014, 21:57
Don't sell them cheap, someone will buy them...

Quite right. I have at least four of everything I might want to use apart from speakers, but that shortcoming will be addressed.

I would stick them on ebay if they were mine, in fact I would buy them if I needed speakers, they look fantastic!

GLWTS.

These babies RRP is £855.80:doh:

I ran the RS3's for a few years and they are superb.

These are still available at £350.
Madness if you think you would have to pay almost £900 for a new pair

Conan
22-05-2014, 13:22
Well since they don't sell here I will have to put them on ebay bid

Gazjam
22-05-2014, 13:40
I'd Keep em mate.
Maybe just a bad time for folk, these things come and go.

You'll get shafted on Ebay, I'd wait until things pick up again if you can.
There's value in those speakers.

Frustrating though.

A dealer might give you good trade in if your selling to upgrade?

Conan
22-05-2014, 15:07
Thanks for the advise mate but I have got too much gear and need to shift these.
Pity as I have seen Rega RS1S going on ebay for more than what I am asking for these.
Ebay it is

RichB made me aware of these, I've heard his and they are a great sounding speaker indeed. Sadly I've no where to put them or I would buy them! or swap you my technics for themor beg in the streets for more storage (I work away you see). Now if RichB was to perhaps hold these for me (I think he lady may object however) then perhaps a deal could be struck including shipping to Newcastle? I'll send him a message and see what he says.

Rich'll tell you how good these speakers are mate.

So will I if you ask me!

Getting them at that price is fantastic, and in piano black a bit of a Brucie bonus.

No probs Graeme.

For the first time my wife is actually sad that these speakers are going.
They were the only only that she actually liked (cosmetically, off course...)
