I sincerely hope this was tongue in cheek and the context has been lost in the text.

When they were first released I wanted a pair of Ditton 15's, but price was out of my league. Many decades later, I bought a second hand pair and I must confess, I was disappointed, slightly boomy bass, a muddled midrange and possibly needing a supertweeter. I acquired several other pairs, all were similar. However, they do produce a reasonable sound from just a few watts, so probably providing a good match for a budget system. I am talking about the original 15 that uses the Celestion HF1300. I have no experience of the later model that I believe uses a soft dome tweeter.
Not to worry. We each have our opinions.
Well said Geoff :)

The Mordant Short Pagents were a much later design (the '80s) than the the Ditton 15s (the late '60s). When I was staring out, I considered buying a pair of Ditton 15s, but couldn't really afford them, so I built a pair of similar sized speakers following a Wharfedale design using the Wharfedale RS8/DD chassis.Quote:

I’ve been watching this preamp for a year I guess? A very long time, he hasn’t budged on the price in all that time, but I’m sure a decent offer might seal the deal? It’s a nice looking unit with all the tubes, remote and factory boxes. Why has it not sold? Should I avoid it? Or should I make the offer for around $1250? Anyone have any experience with this model?
