Not bad at all... Very good value - I guess they don't attract much attention due to being so damn ugly !
Someone's written an article on that model here: http://www.highfidelityreview.com/in...ta-f444es.html
I don't think any major changes were made in the mk2... They got rid of the copper & upgraded a couple of opamps.

What... A.... BARGAIN !!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pair-of-ma...item3389f900de
Damn it, N1!!!
I heard some for the first time last month - I was surprised at how good they sounded as I have an unfounded bias against paper cone tweeters. Sounded quite alive and fast but obviously bass shy. This was on the back of an Exposure IV Dual Regulated.
Still, not worth £500! £250 is dubious too, which is more normal pricing.
True, but probably not including the travel costs for so many people - looks like collection only in scotland somewhere.. I bet having a small holiday home up there could be paid for by bringing audio bargains down to London..
They did use some good drivers. I like the M series with their Philips dome mid-ranges as per the Tandberg Studio monitor and Meridian M1. Good source of spares for those much more sought-after speakers..
