I am selling three JTR Noesis 212HT speakers in rosewood/walnut veneer ($200 upgrade per speaker). Note that the color is much closer to the first picture with all three side-by-side than the other pictures (taken with cell phone). These speakers are special with their 101 dB sensitivity and expensive BMS compression driver mated to a pair of quick and powerful custom 12" woofers. Cabinet construction is 1" thick baltic birch, well-braced and resonance free, for a total weight of 126 lb. per speaker. The Noesis 212 HT are the best speakers I've owned to date, outperforming both GR Research LS6 and Legacy Focus SE overall in my opinion. Here is a discussion about them here on Audiogon:
http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1357880329&openflup&2&4#2, or search AVS Forum for lots of detailed comments and reviews at speaker shootouts and GTG. They have a neutral tonal balance, excellent resolution and imaging, and are extremely clean and dynamic without any harshness whether you play them quietly or ridiculously loud. See attached screen capture of frequency response and distortion level measured with REW at ~1.5 m on axis. The only caveat is they need a subwoofer below 80 Hz, so they are not full range. Condition is flawless, as when I first received them five months ago. Save $700 and get a set that has been broken in by a responsible and meticulous audio enthusiast, but with very low mileage. Selling in order to compromise and have a smaller two-channel system that doesn't "dominate" the living room, and to raise money for other family expenses.
Please email or call (805-259-7262) me with any questions. Shipping can be done via FedEx Ground to a business address at a reasonable price. I have all original packaging, so you can be confident that they will arrive safely. Buy with confidence from an experienced Audiogon member since 2009 with perfect feedback.
