FS: Seas prestige two way floor standing speakers

[smallangryboy]

Up for sale is a recently completed project. Using the HiVi isodynamic (ribbon) tweeters and Seas Er18rnx prestige 6.5" bass drivers. Crossovers use high quality capacitors and air core inductors. Based loosely on the Zaph SR71 and Starling designs.

CNC machined metal feet each about 7kg with grub screws at the back so you can adjust the angle the speakers incline. Designed for a listening position of approximately 2m ~ 2.5m and elevation of 1m.

Cabinets are CNC Valchromat and white melamine faced plywood baffles, assembled and professionally finished. Cabinets are ported and produce prodigious amounts of bass. If you like ribbon tweeters you will probably like the balance of detail and resolution these give without being too analytical.


21cm wide
18cm deep
76cm high

Amplification: 25 W – 100 W per channel
Long term power handling: 80 W
Sensitivity: 85 dB
Nominal impedance: 8 ohms


More than the sum of its parts and near double the cost to make as I'm asking. Too many projects mean these have to go.

[B]Price is £575 or sensible offers collected from Oxfordshire

Superb finish!

Some of the nicest speakers I have seen, if they sound as good as they look someone is in for a treat! Do you have any pictures of them next to your gear/other furniture for a sense of scale?

[smallangryboy]

I don't but can probably take one tomorrow

Here are a few quick photos for size comparison. Next to it on the right is my latest project which is the same size as the Royd Minstrel. ;)

Up for the weekend. Not that you should be reading this - you should be outside with a glass of cold beer ;)

Up for the weekend. Not that you should be reading this - you should be outside with a glass of cold beer ;)One could of course be multi-tasking...

Such as fettling with the exterior sound system, having a beer and reading your post...
Great looking speakers, not sure I could get them past the wife sadly... GLWShttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200808/6cf99f73a9e2411f88011549c68dcad5.jpg

Lovely, I approve of both your choices! I find the easiest way is that if they suddenly appear :)

I now have a box large enough to allow postage but would still prefer collection. You can arrange your own courier or alternatively postage by Parcelforce 48 is about £60 because of the size and weight.

Brilliant I would have liked them if I had room!

[0rangutan]

They look just as fantastic in person as they do in the photos :)
Sound pretty good too!

[smallangryboy]

So glad you like them, they may need a little fettling to tailor to your room depending on size or furnishing etc. Glad they went to a good home!
