    Is there much difference between manufacturers of these things ?
    I've often wondered at - I think - the Falcon variant going for £1k+ for instance.

    This seems a bargain given that the stands are thrown in as well
    I am a little surprised myself to be honest. These are the 15 ohm variant and sound absolutely wonderful. I have had interest though it has been from folks who want them shipping. I had one guy offer me £500. My reply was in Latin. I had these hooked up to my Prima Luna's and they really are something else. I am selling these for a friend who is selling all of his old kit.

    Having many years ago heard a pair of these I am very surprised these have not gone by now. Would sound great in an average size UK room/lounge 10-12' by 16-18' or smaller and with stands, a bit of a steal at this price IMO.
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    I think some clarity over cost of postage within the UK might help.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
