Very nice sounding speakers designed by Martin Colloms with 8" polypropylene bass drivers and Elac metal dome tweeters.
The cabinets are just under the classic 2 cubic feet size favoured by the BBC, Spendor etc.
Unfortunately one of the bass drivers has a split in it, I can't hear any effect at (for me) normal listening levels but I'm sure it's far from ideal in technical terms. I was going to glue it, I think it's a reasonable repair as it's plastic, but they won't replace my Amphion speakers and I don't have room for a second system here, so I might as well let them go.
The Heybrook open frame stands are very good ones, they are heavy iron frames with spikes on top and bottom, ideal for these and similar sized speakers. They seem to pierce carpets much better than any other stand I've owned [emoji3]
I'd like £40 for the speakers as the tweeters are worth that (they are sought by owners of TDL Studio speakers as well as many Monitor Audio speakers such as the R952MD).
The stands are £30, or £60 for the stands and speakers together.
Collection only from North London please.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200916/0a4fd4501e02d7e8de5297e05e8c7a72.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200916/0963ab4956f03ff2b9695816c5adafd7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200916/26743d33358b76147f9ee3df660f9a34.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200916/44e56af49f4192dcbb82ea1656f44c74.jpg
