** SOLD **
Subject says it all. I bought these B-stock, with very minor veneer cracks that can only be seen at the perfect angle and if you have bright light shining at them. The finish is palisander rosa satin and as you can see in the photos, there are no scratches or dents. This has the newer version of the Ninja Elite with Sonicap GenII bypass caps (the older version didn't include the bypass caps). I detailed the installation of the XO parts in the Ninja's forum here:
http://www.ninjasreview.com/forum/showthread.php?417-Ninja-DIY-Elite-for-X-LS-Encore-X-SLS-Encore-How-To-and-1st-ImpressionsI was going to use them in an office system, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen, and they've been sitting in their box ever since a 100-hour break in period. So now they're up for sale.
Included are the:
- speakers w/ grilles (1 of the 8 grille screws don't screw down completely - I never forced it since the grille held just fine)
- white socks, original styrofoam and double boxes
- rubber feet
- owners manual
Price is
$275 $250 plus shipping via FedEx Ground from San Francisco (94116) plus Paypal if used. I figure that this price is fair since it's less than what Danny Richie is selling for the driver/tweeter/crossover ($149 + shipping), plus the cost the crossover upgrade ($156), and you'd still have to source/build a cabinet.
