**SOLD** PMC FB1i Black Ash
« on: 2 Oct 2013, 12:36 am »
$2000 $1800 OBO SOLD








I'm going to keep this ad short and sweet; which is a bit of a departure for me. PMCs are great speakers, and some feel the FB1i is the sweet-spot in the line. I won't wax poetic, because there are plenty of positive reviews around; and I'm sure you know how to Google.

I'll say this: I've had plenty of very good speakers. I was a Dynaudio man for a long time; until I fell in love with the "British" sound. That means I've had Harbeth, Spendor, Proac; all the British stalwarts. All very nice in their own way; but I preferred these PMCs.

I wish I could keep them; but an imminent move cross-country, has me down-sizing...and selling-off most of my kit. These are about the last thing to go.

It's very hard, to take good pictures...of Black speakers. Here they are in my system, and I've got a couple more I will post shortly (and I can always provide more, upon request). They're in very good shape; maybe one or two, small...barely-noticeable blemishes, which I've documented as best I can. I'd say they are an honest 8; but I'll go 7 to be conservative.

Please check the long-standing and impeccable feedback (hiendpawn at audiogon), and buy with confidence. While I didn't want to carry-on, about this speakers sonic traits here; if you have any questions about them, feel free to drop me a line. I don't mind talking shop...especially if you're trying to figure out, if these would be a good fit in your system.

Will ship in 2 boxes; each is about 53 LBS. Buyer is responsible for actual s&h; and if we need to use PayPal, please be prepared to add 3% to the final tally.

Asking price is?
Maybe an oversight since your other items
have the price.

Yeah, sorry; since I'm working on the "description"...I hadn't listed the condition and price. $2300, thanks.

Used to own the FB1i's and they are a great speaker and are very easy to drive, surprise to see these still available. . .  Good luck on your sale.

Thanks Max. As I said...that seems to be the consensus; great speaker...great price. Can't believe they're not selling...lol. It's a bit of a head-scratcher  :scratch:

But, if they don't sell soon...I'd be happy enough to just keep 'em.

Absolutely suberb speakers. If you like proac or spendor or harbeth, TRY these!!!!  These speakers are stunning!  They are worth triple the asking price here.  I've owned spendor and harbeth and heard proacs many times, trust me, these speakers are every bit as good and IMO better.  Open, dynamic, with gorgeous clarity. And bass that puts most competitors to shame. Don't have to take my word for it, read the MANY rave reviews for PMC speakers. 

Why don't I buy them?  Simple, I already own PMCs.

 My first pair of PMC's were the FB1i's. For the longest time these had won more awards than any other PMC, and PMC has won a lot of awards. These are absolutely worth taking a chance on. Great imaging, not too forward, not too laid-back, easy to drive without uber-amps... the cornerstone product for what has become one of this industry's premier speaker companies. You will be entertained.

D.D.
