If they were the Mordant-Short Pagents then I would have thought it could be a terrific bargain.Originally Posted by Xapito
However my experince of the Pagents was with the 'Series I' - lovely little speakers.

They are but the cabs seemed to have been painted black, the aluminium trim under the grill is either missing of also painted black.

They are the Pageant's but series 2, all drivers are original but the alum trim is indeed missing or painted. Not sure about the veneer though, but they'll need some care which means extra fun.
Let's wait and see what comes up.

I've been thinking about a reel to reel and this Tascam caught my eye...

Would look good next to an EMT?

Would indeed, provided you can get 1" tape and don't get a crick in the neck or the back from trying to read the level meters!

Why? surely anybody interested in these would understand what the word each means and be capable of multiplying by 2.

NOT a 'Bargain on eBay'!
What is an empty pair of Tannoy Turnbury cabinets worth? £200 maybe. Add in a pair of IIILZ drivers, which seem to sell for around £800 these days (for some inexplicable reason) and you have a grand's worth perhaps. Not two and a quarter thousand quid!

Maybe they're worth that in Poland, but not here.
