FS:ACI Sapphire XLs and SCS stands in Cherry sold

jrebman · « **on:** 15 Sep 2008, 04:01 pm »

Edit: These are now officially for sale. More details to follow.

Yup, sad but true -- I'm going to be selling my favorite speakers to date -- a pair of ACI Sapphire XLs in cherry, the Sound Anchors SCS stands, and the Force XL sub, also in cherry. Everything is in absolutely excellent, 9/10 condition and the Sapphires have over 4 years left on a transferrable 5 year warranty, and the ForceXL has over 2 years left on its transferrable 3 year warranty for the amplifier, and the 4 remaining years on the cabinetry.

Speakers and stands $1400, sub $450.

The reason: I'm just ready to move back to the purity of the single driver thing with my custom F120A Fonkens. No other reason really, as I really enjoy these speakers a lot and never imagined selling them.

[Edit: since first writing this another set of circumstances has come up which has forced us to sell off the entirety of our living room system, so it's not even really a matter of choice anymore.]

Thanks,

Jim

Hi,

Will you separate out the components...particularly the sub?

Thanks.

Probably, especially if there is interest in the Sapphires and SCS stands alone as a package.

In fact, the sub isn't even being used (and I've actually never used it), so that could conceivably go more or less anytime.

I'm also going to make this real easy for all of us by giving my bottom-line., no-haggling prices. but at these prices I will have to insist that the buyer pick up both the paypal fees and the shipping. Postal money orders are also completely acceptable.

All speakers come with all their original boxes and manuals, etc. (as do the stands), and all warranties are transferrable and have approximately one year taken off their spans (I've had the speakers just a bit less than a year).
Sapphire XLs and SCS stands: $1500 plus shipping and paypal.

Force XL: $450 plus shipping and paypal *SOLD*

That's it folks -- immaculate condition, unobtanium Cherry veneer, most of warranty left, original packing material, and fully broken in. Hook 'em up, turn on the gear, and enjoy.

Thanks for looking,

Jim

Bump... for a great deal on a great pair of speakers.

Bump for final price drop, new terms and sold sub.

Looks like there's a sale pending on the Force XL.

Bump for final price drop.

Force XL is waiting for a check to clear.

Bump.

This will not, after further consideration, be going to audiogon, so I'm trusting that somebody here on AC will want these.

$1500, no paypal fee.

Thanks,

Jim

Bump.

Bottom line -- $1350 plus shipping and insurance -- no paypal.

That's a serious, serious deal for a seriously great pair of speakers and stands. I'm sticking by my guns to not take this to agon.

Bump.

Please don't force me to put these on agon -- which I will have to do sometime the week after RMAF.

I now have lots of high-res photos for anybody who might be interested.

Thanks,

Jim

Bumpski.

Ok, please somebody take these off my hands before I change my mind. I stopped by Mike's room at RMAF, and things were sounding absolutely wonderful with Bryan's Korato amps. So good in fact that it was rather depressing listening to the Sapphires knowing I had to sell mine. I spent the entire ride home thinking about how I could somehow manage to keep them, but the truth is that I just can't.

So, c'mon all you lurkers, the markets rebounded today -- cash out enough to get these wonderful speakers at a wonderful price, and you won't regret it. Speakers and stands are all packed and ready to go.

I will unfortunately have to post these on agon tomorrow if nobody bites. Remember, I have lots of high-res pics, so don't be afraid to ask, and then you can see for yourself that these are in immaculate, mint condition.

Thanks,

Jim
