    I am the guilty person and fully accept this is very bad form and not something I normally do, especially to people on this forum and was so keen on Gary's and he is a top bloke , the main issue for me is the wife she isn't happy anyway and if I was to have speakers wanted oak ( after decorating, new carpets ,sofas and picking up oak sideboard on Saturday). I explained rare as hens teeth etc and following a lot of creeping she grudgingly accepted. Then Colin posted his post and I put everyone in a dilemma , not only letting Gary down but also putting Colin in a very awkward position as last thing he imagined happening he also has a lot of respect for Gary .
    In my weak defence Colin's are oak , sr edingdales and logistically easier.
    Sorry again

A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    I haven't heard any of these, but they seem to get stellar reviews from anybody who has heard them.

    I like hi-efficiency speakers. I run my humble made Troels' C17s which are pretty damn good I can only Collin's speakers will have even nicer low end (more membrane area, less excursion, less distortion).

    You guys seem to be all in the North. What are the chances/cost of getting any of these to London?

    I should mention that I have 1-pair the original MKI midbass drivers that are NOS and in their original box, should anyone considering buying Gaza's speakers and feel a reluctance to buy due to unavailable replacement drivers should the worst happens and a driver goes down or damaged. I will keep these spare drivers safe and in storage so any potential purchaser knows they are available. The pseudo ribbon tweeters are still available.

    At the price Gaza is asking these speakers are a veritable bargain.


    NOTE to moderators.
    Any chance you can change my Monica to say simply 'member' since I am no longer a trader and still wish to remain a general non trading member of the forum.

    What's the difference between the Mk1 and MK2?

    Different midbass drivers, later version of the pseudo ribbon tweeter, new OX, changed port tuning, cabinet redesign to accommodate slighter larger frame size of the new 6 1/2" midbase drivers. Want me to go on? Basically a totally redesigned speaker but to maintain to as best we could the sound and presence of the originals as possible.
