Due to downsizing, I must sadly part with this pair of beloved speakers.
It has been driven with many different tube amplifiers, all with great result.
Local pickup asking for $2000

Its got Fountek JP3.0, one of the best ribbon tweeters at the time, has a low-mass (11mg) element of corrugated aluminum and a strong neodymium magnet with built-in transformer. Woofers are their later version with copper-plated aluminum phase plugs.



Cabinets are very heavy, with front baffle machined from 1.75" thick poplar, and incorporate a wave guide/loading horn for the ribbon tweeters.

Overall this in conjunction with some good tube amp will produce some very magical sound. Even 8-10w SET 300B/845 amplifiers would work great; can't say the same with the 20x time more expensive speakers like magico or wilson.
