    They're Avatars, rather than auditoriums.

    The price for Ninaninas is about right for early Auditoriums.

    There are differences between the mk1 &2. The cabinet is finished differently and possibly made at a different factory following the closure of the castle factory that made the originals. Mk2s were made in Denmark I think. The plinths on the Mk2 are made of lighter material and are taller. I'd also imagine there were some crossover revisions over the time that the mk2 came out....not that I've had a lot of experience with LVs or anything. The mk1 auditorium is great fun.

    That's great thanks Steve. Mine certainly have Made in UK on them

    Those on Emporium are certainly being sold as Auditorium's rather than Avatar's but I'm no expert on the matter

    They're Avatars. They have the d2905 tweeter and slightly different bass drivers.

    I wouldn't worry. Besides, it's in context with other posts.

    I've had a few people ask if I can ship the LV's and I am really sorry but as the boxes are not in the best condition they are for pick up only I'm afraid or I could also meet up, within reasonable miles from Portsmouth, if that helps anyone

    I am really sorry to disappoint those that wanted them shipped but I don't want these being handled by any courier
