Hey,
I've got some Timepieces and I am throwing around the idea of a trade for some Mini's. All I want/need is a smaller footprint in the room, and that's it. As everyone else here knows, the sound quality is unparalleled. It wouldn't be right to sell them. Mine are studio black, and labeled 2.1, but they have the 3.0's internals. I got them right when Bob made the switch over to Mundorf. My downgrade is your upgrade, I guess, unless you're really attached to the wood...but the 2k price difference (new) should tell you what you're getting in return. If you're willing to pay shipping, you can even return them if you don't like them as much. I think this could work out great for the right people.
Let me know what you think, I'll be around.
Merry Christmas.
Dave
