Hi,
I will post more details soon.
These are exceptional monitors and rare on the secondary market.
Offer made. Sale pending. These are sold.
I have original boxes and the proper custom stands (about $500 new).
Speakers are in "like new" condition.
Blue Moon Award winner. See review excerpts and happy owner comments below.
Yes, I will ship, but these are about 55 pounds per unit. The original boxes are well constructed, but I still may double box.
If you don't know about Green Mountain audio, consider reading up on the company.
Roy is a true dedicated music lover. These speakers are often compared with those 3 to 4 times their original price. of $3,000
I have excellent feedback on Audiogon. PM me for my Agon name and perfect feedback record.
Feel free to ask questions.
$1350
Located in NC.
REVIEW EXCERPT:
From the 6moons review: ". . .it was impossible to identify any cabinet resonances - or anything else for that matter that was unnatural or unmusical. Talk about an open window on the performance. The resolution of minute musical detail was staggering." The Callistos were presented a Blue Moon Award
THE FOLLOWING ARE ALL COMMENTS FROM GREEN MOUNTAIN AUDIO OWNERS. EACH FROM A DIFFERENT PERSON.
I would suggest auditioning the Callisto's. They are a stunning speaker.
my wife walked into my room, sat down and closed her eyes. . .. There is no middle ground. After a spell, she turned and said these were indeed the best speakers she had heard in our home, ever. When asked why, she simply offered, "I only hear the music. I can't hear the speakers at all".
I heard the Callisto and it was stunning, a very good speaker, with no box coloration at all, if I were ever to get a monitor it would be hard to forget about the Green Mountain audition.
I have owned the Europas longer than any other speaker that I have ever owned and my wife and I enjoy them. If I ever get the upgrade bug, the Callistos will be our choice. If the Callistos are that much better than the Europas, the Callistos are a bargain. Thanks to Roy for making a great, reasonablly priced speaker.
The Green Mountain is the finest small speaker I have heard. It is honest, clean,
I also agree about the spectacular sound ... on a good recoding the speakers completely disappear, and there's a huge and deep soundstage with superb imaging.
AND, this long comment from a happy owner:
A dynamic that usually comes only from single driver or horn designs. The start and stop of percussion intruments is startling. The full tone burst of notes are readily heard. A light brush stroke on a cymbal followed by a thwack on a snare drum could be cause for the need for Depends big Jerry.
Transparency that lets you hear more deeply into the soundstage. This could be attributed to many factors BUT I can only make comparisons to other designs that I have heard. Since the GMA's allow me to hear more deeply into the recording venue without the sensation that everything is recessed or laid back, I find that it is truly transparent without trying to sound that way.
Bass that is tight and accurate in its tonality in comparison to what I hear live and unamplified. I have had the pleasure to hear many great local acts at a venue that does not use a PA system. Being a drummer, I know what most instruments sound like.
Mid range purity. Vocals have a purity that sounds real. Not hyper fat syrupy real. Just real. As a human (maybe not according to my wife), I know what the human voice sounds like. No other design has gotten this nearly as right as Green Mountain.
