Proac Studio1 Cherry finish speakers with dual pillar Target stands
Excellent sounding speakers but they are a little "tatty" with some finish fade to the top of the right speaker, some minor marks to the cabinets including a small chip missing from the veneer on the top of the left speaker and the grilles need recovering.
The stands could probably do with a fresh coat of paint.
I have tried to show these imperfections in the photos.
The bass/midrange drivers were replaced in 2010 after a child poked the centres and punctured them.
Some speaker specs:
Size : 8" (204mm) Width x 9.5" (240mm) Depth x 16" (408mm) Height
Impedance : 8 Ohms
Frequency Response : 40Hz - 30KHz
Maximum Input : 100Watts
Mode : Stand Mounting
The Target stands are 17" (432mm) tall excluding spikes, sand filled dual pillars and provide a good solid platform for the speakers to perform well.
Tuning Tip: I found these speakers perform best when "blutack" is used to "attach" them to the stands - 2 10mm diameter
blobs at the front corners and 1 centre rear - rather than using spikes in the stands top plate.
If you are looking for very good inexpensive stand mounted speakers, do not mind a few minor cabinet imperfections and are happy to re-cover the grilles these are probably the speakers and stands you want.
I am happy to include 2 pairs of "speaker binding post extensions" - shown fitted in photos - which make it easier to connect larger cables to these speakers.
I would accept £350 plus P&P if necessary - I much prefer cash on collection although delivery is possible within Greater Manchester/Nearby for fuel contribution.
