Now don't get me wrong, they look to be in superb condition but arent they budget floorstanders ? Those tweeters used to cost between £5 -£10 each... I just cant understand the price :mental:

I have to agree. That Audax tweeter was a real cheapie which always sounded veiled in every speaker I heard it. Whenever it was replaced with something better, the speaker took several paces forward in terms of performance.
What did surprise me was that the RR1 retailed for £799 in 2001. I'd expected it to be cheaper with that tweeter.

Can you really have two quadraphonic speakers?Quote:

Somewhat doubtful :lol:
Having owned an amazing smaller pair of Royds a few years ago, I'd take those over a £400 pair of new Monitor Audio or something any day of the week ...Quote:

I've owned & enjoyed Minstrels, Doublets, Conistons, Edens & Apex's so I'm not knocking the brand I just thought the price was daft considering any of the aforementioned would eat them for breakfast at half the price IMO.
This looks very cheap. A pair of Audio Technica mono moving coil cartridges for £195!
One for the (few) mono buffs.
