    Default For Sale: Posselt Albatross Speakers

    Posselt Albatross Speakers

    With my system seldom used, I've made the decision to downsize.

    Very rarely seen for sale and in this finish and condition.

    Hand-built by Jens Posselt in Denmark, all solid wood - no veneers, sold new by Nottingham Analogue Studio in Nottingham in 1999. The original supports have been modified to comprise allen-key tightened , MDF circular discs with rubber feet. The original horn-loaded tweeters were replaced by vastly superior ScanSpeak Classic tweeters in 2013, by speaker experts Wilmslow Audio in Leics and all passive components, wiring and cross-overs including the high quality polypropylene capacitors were checked. Speaker terminals accept banana plugs, spades or bare wire.

    Please note the left speaker wood appears faded in the image with speaker grills on - they are not faded - this is caused by overexposure by my phones camera.

    UK sale only, payment via Bank transfer, sell for £1495. I don't have the original packaging and I will not ship - so collection only.

    Truly lovely speakers. I coveted a pair of these in the 90s, after hearing them at GT Audio. Sound great and look stunning. Your pair look perfect. Had these come up a few months ago, I would have bought them for my second system. Good luck with the sale.

    I heard a pair of these at Tom Fletchers (Nottingham Analogue) RIP place and it was one of the best sounds ever
