Hello,

I have two "projects" for sale:

The first is an AV123 MFEW-15 subwoofer, a giant 100 lbs. ported monster, in black. This subwoofer is notorious for bad amplifiers, and this one indeed has a bad amplifier. I have an amplifier which will work, an AudioControl Architect 200 unit that is 2 ohm stable, (so stable bridged to 4 ohms) AND has a variable 18db high-pass for subsonic roll-off... that ends (starts?) at 20 Hz. So would be perfect for this subwoofer. If someone wants more low-end bandwidth (the subwoofer was originally rated for 15 - 17 Hz. and has a port tuning of 18 Hz.) then other amplifiers can be used. Asking $163 for the subwoofer, and $217 for the subwoofer with the AudioControl amplifier which is 420 Watts RMS @ 4 ohms bridged mono. Dimensions are 23.94" x 18.125" x 22.44" H x W x D. Including an image of a fix for the amplifier that I found on the internet - but I'd feel better using it with a reliable amplifier.

The second are a pair of Meridian DSP6000 digital speakers: super top of the line, two piece, triamplified with linear phase DSP between the mid and the tweeter, 4 Vifa 8" woofers for the bass section, and a separate (and still quite heavy) midrange/tweeter unit that is a really attractive three dimensional trapezoid shape, and digital input only. Something is wrong with the electronics, so one can either figure out a passive crossover (factory is 6th order @ 200 Hz. and linear phase at 2.6 kHz), or one can use the nice Hypex Fusion Ncore amplifiers, which would be ideal as they have 3 amplifier modules and built-in crossovers - I would use the FusionAmp 123 for normal rooms or the FusionAmp 253 for larger rooms combined with high volumes. Looking for $637 for this pair.

I'm also working on one other pair of Meridian DSP6000 speakers that completely work, amplifiers and everything. These only take a digital input, and so aren't easy to integrate into home theater, but are straightforward to use in 2 channel mode. And they sound spectacular (8 years as Stereophile Class A, for whatever that's worth when a magazine has advertisers). Looking for $1873 for that pair, firm. specifications: https://www.meridian-audio.info/public/6000[3355].pdf

(I also have the matching center channel for the Meridian speakers, the DSP5000C for $367. Excellent speaker, digital input only because it's a Meridian. Sounds really, really good. 70+ lbs.!)

I'm in 90042 in Los Angeles, California. The subwoofers and the speakers are all at least 100 lbs. (the speakers actually more than the subwoofer!), so this is very much local pickup only.

Cheers,
Tal

(Photos of subwoofer aren't mine (the sub is deep in the garage). I can take photos of it if someone wants, but it looks the same, and has a grille.​
