For sale is a pair of Sonus Faber Grand Piano floorstanding speakers in mint condition. There are no scratches, dents or dings on the speakers; all of the drive units are in excellent condition and the speakers operate as they should. They would be perfect for anyone who is looking for a speaker that has resolution, musicality, and that looks like a million bucks. The piano black gloss finish with the black leather accents are just gorgeous!

http://www.stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/269/index.htmlConclusion:
"With its combination of black leatherette, black lacquer, sculpted side panels, and brass trim, the Sonus Faber Concerto Grand Piano is a distinctively styled loudspeaker that many will find sleek and seductive-looking. Count me in. But the real magic comes when you listen. This is among the more musically satisfying loudspeakers I've heard at any price—with an outstanding combination of strengths and few weaknesses I could detect. I kept the Grand Pianos in my system for about four months and enjoyed every listening minute.
While the Audio Physic Virgos, which cost $2000/pair more than the Grand Pianos, offer greater resolution of inner detail, greater transparency, a deeper, more dramatic soundstage, a somewhat more vibrant and airy midrange, and deeper bass, they're also somewhat more colored in the midbass, and their top end might be a bit much for some listeners (not me—I'm still enthralled). I can't imagine many audiophiles who wouldn't enjoy listening to the Grand Pianos regardless of how much their current speakers cost—that's how good they are. At $3500/pair the Grand Pianos are an outstanding value. I recommend you audition them even if you'd planned on spending far more on new speakers."
I do not have the original boxes. However, I will pack them securely with lots of bubble wrap and sturdy boxes to make the trip safely. I have packed and shipped large speakers many times and know what I am doing. Each packed speaker will be approximately 45"x16"x16" and 70 pounds. Please contact me with questions about shipping.
Original retail: $3,500. Asking $1,500 plus shipping (from New Haven, CT area) FIRM. Pickup is encouraged if possible. I can meet someone within 50 miles.
