FS: Mordaunt Short Pageant Series 2 speakers

[symon]

The clear out continues. Here we have a scruffy set of lovely sounding classic speakers. These have lots of scuffs and scratches on the cabinets, and one switch doesn't work in one position - it causes the speaker to cut out completely. The easiest workaround is to keep the switch up and all works fine!

These sound great, but I've moved on. Grab yourself a bargain! I don't have any boxes for these, so it's collection only.

I'd like £40 firm for these please. Please note I do have them for sale on Gumtree for slightly more.

Im looking for some Mk.III of these.

[symon]

That's nice. Slightly irrelevant to this thread, though.

[Virtual-Symmetry]

Whys that then?

[symon]

Well, I'm selling some speakers, and you are looking for some different speakers. Normally I would expect responses to this thread to be about the speakers for sale, rather than speakers that you're looking for.

For what it is worth, these are superb sounding speakers at a nice price!

Back in the day, the Isophon tweeters were considered by some to be better than the Kef T27.
I'm also led to believe that the Mordaunt Short mid/bass unit (D208) was looked at by several commercial speaker builders for it's qualities.

I've heard the Pageant range sound excellent when using Naim amps.

Good luck with the sale.

[symon]

Thanks Paul.

Bump

[symon]

And again

[symon]

Bump. Lovely speakers. Give 'em a try!

[symon]

These are still available. Still collection only. Would take £30 for them if anyone is interested.
Ugh. Photobucket no longer works. I'll dig around see what I need to do... and the answer is Imgur!!

An absolute bargain for anybody within reach of Bristol.

[philv]

Cracking speakers.
I'm keeping mine.
There's a certain satisfaction in having something this good that costs bugger all.

[Barry]

I can't believe these haven't been snapped up by now. They're excellent little speakers, being sold for a 'give away' price - ideal for a second system or for AV duties.

I would take them without hesitation if I lived closer to Bristol.

[symon]

Thanks for the good words everyone. These are great speakers, price is a bargain.
I would consider delivering them within an hour's drive (as estimated by me using Google maps from my house), in which case the price will be £40. Still a bargain.
Go on - you know you want to...

[Lawrence001]

C'mon folks £40 delivered that's a bargain. Also the condition is good compared to most vintage speakers I've seen. They have a great reputation, look around the forum if you don't know.

Thank Peter! Was a pleasure to meet you. The speakers are great.
Cheers!

[symon]

Excellent. The music you were playing sounding amazing. Maybe I need some floor standers and a bigger amp? We'll see.
Glad you like them. I enjoyed them, so it's good to know they're continuing to give pleasure.

[nuff]

Thank you! I'm very happy with it at the moment :)
The album playing was Ali Ferguson - A sequence of moments, I like it a lot.
