Very tidy Dynaudio Contour 1.1 compact speakers in London. A high quality product with fine sound quality, these were about £800 new. Nice!

Mega rare and amazing B&O 5700 (5702?) speakers in Ilford. They are basically Celestion Ditton 66 speakers with 10" bass & ABR. They sound like 66s!

The tweeters are Phillips units and I believe the mid may be from Audax.

Lecson HL-1 horn speakers in Sidcup. Rare in this condition. If you know what these are you don't need me to explain!

I want these so much! But I don't have room for a speaker big enough to do them justice. Bugger!

Don't forget Altec made some fantastic bass drivers. Or, something from Vitavox would be nice.

Yes Geoff,

Working on it for a pair of Altec's or Vita's someday, i'll just have to be biased to my more *common* JBL coned speakers for the time being,
you know how i like to exaggerate :D

These are actually pretty damn good, perfect for flea amps. Well worth £50 IMO

It's great that buyers are being offered the opportunity to purchase them by weight though, don't you think?

Price:£99.99 Buy It Now
(£4.00 / kg)

I think I'll have a couple of kilos worth and if I like them them, I'll top them up later.
Maybe they could offer Pick 'n Mix, that way I could try a couple of kg of amp too!

That is rather odd :scratch:

The last couple of items I listed eBay wanted to know their weight... I just left it blank.

I would love a really good pair of headphones. Recently been wondering what Koss electrostatics sound like. Incidently, Koss offer a lifetime warranty, so if you get a dodgey set off eBay, you could send them to get refurbished at no cost - I think.

Aha, cant say I've heard of them before I take it they're quite rare ?

HD-600's are all I'll ever need when it comes to headphones.

Some great tuner deals out there. I got a different Denon tuner, the TU-800L, around Christmas for just £22. Not sure why but I've not seen much coverage in the hi-fi press about this model. But if you ever see one for sale, just grab it. It's one of the best tuners they ever made.

Attention Classic Speaker fans! These are going to go for Big Bucks! A new, boxed, unused pair of vintage Goodmans Triaxiom 212C drive units. My guess is they'll sell for over £500! There are people who'd kill for these.

I reckon they're going to go silly cheap. If I was nearer I'd have them, even though I don't have room (at the moment).

The TLS 50 is a lovely speaker. Think Spendor BC1 with another octave of potent bass and you'll have some idea. In some ways I preferred it to the bigger IMFs. I expect the guy would let you have a listen to them.

Don't like 'BC1' nor transmissions.. I'll not be bothering with em tbh. Just amazed to see how close he is to me..

Aye, about a decade too late for you aren't they ? :ner: I also urge you to just have a listen... They are really good.

Geoff, don't see them on the bay much these days, what do you reckon a pair of Axiom 401's are worth? Also the twin axiom I think they are called?

They do crop up on eBay. I'd guess a near mint pair of 12" Twin Axioms could go for as much as £150 to £250 maybe. Nice enough speaker, but I'd sooner have a pair of Wharfedale Super 10 RSDD's.
