People want to know, why I am selling! Because my life has done an audio 360 circle, sort of back to partially cheap & cheerful hi-fi! I have a beautiful living room that was my primary listening room, separate 20 amp circuit with 12 gauge wired outlets, all great interconnects, perfectly measured distance between speaks and from sweet spot, bla, bla, bla!
It has all changed! After 2 years of only listening to my system in my living room like 4 times, because I am now out with my friends in my mancave often with a cheap & cheerful hi-fi system I decided to moved my quality electronics out to my mancave, rebuilt my cheap speaks with better drivers & crossovers (4 matching speaks, 2 in mancave, 2 in porch) 1 ACI Maestro and just got a Squeezebox! Along with an old 50” DLP-TV my Mancave rocks and nobody tells me to turn it down!
So I made the decision, a hard one at that, to sell these special speakers! The main reasons are, my mancave is bigger than my living room, I either need more power or higher efficiency speaks, but 4 of them, and the speaks I rebuilt do a very good job with the amplification I have, and I have 4 of them!
They are now in need of a new home!

I have an amplifier currently for sale that I bumped on the 19th.  Although I would like a Thanksgiving day bump, to respect the bumping rules I will have to wait a few days before I can bump it again.

Yes, telling the truth from personal experience. I have owned a pair for several years now and they continue to outshine many of the other speakers I have around my place of similar or higher price. Also, it's rare to find a speaker as solidly built as these, which I would think is partially responsible for their lack of coloration.
