Just wish to double check before purchase. Thank you.

They made great products that reflected a fair price. Folk don't get this anymore. Everyone seems to want bottom line prices for stuff. If you want quality, you need to pay for it.

Lord, this ad lacks intelligence. Decide what you want, then buy it. Genuine apologies if this sounds rude, but c'mon !

Stacked Falcons, anyone done this ? I do love the insane side of this hobby.

I'd have agreed with you up until recently Martyn. Acquired a 909 a month or so ago, it's a stunning thing. It doesn't however have that 'classic' feel about it though.

Many seem to mention the cost of LS3/5a with scorn, though the issue reminds me of a lovely Alexi Sayle joke from many years ago: "Someone said to me the other day, 'lex, why are you drunk all the time. So I told him, because I can afford to be" :) I bought my pair of Falcons new because I...

We all perceive value differently if course. I'd like to add my further thoughts on this as I find the subject really engaging. If I could afford a £35k car (I can't !), I'd much rather have a £22k car and these speakers. Anyway, this is all fanciful irrelevance :rolleyes:

Yes, but if I had the new ones I'd have an expensive pair and a really expensive pair ;) On a less flippant note, if a business can make a beautiful and desirable thing that will sell.........well that's business ! And on a human level, I'd rather see something like this sold than shitloads...

If I could afford them I'd buy them.

Bloody gorgeous. Can you all stop these words and pictures please or else I'll end up going back to an old Quad set up !!

We're slowly sinking to the lowest common denominator I think, not questioning what the computer says or using initiative. When I'm selling gear on eBay I tend to say I'm a hi fi enthusiast of many years and reassure the potential buyer all is genuine, which of course it is. I'd stay a mile...

Not the best in terms of ultimate resolution and detail but on the flip side a beautifully warm presentation. The tilt controls on the 34 are a marvel, subtle but noticeable. Check eBay sold items for current valuations. Bought wisely you'll lose nothing or little if sold on. Serviced units with...

I'm doubting selling mine is the right thing to do now !

I have a Creek OBH-22 on eBay, no remote but I believe you can buy non Creek ones. It's a stunning piece of kit, and now I know just how good passives are my intention is to go the way of Music First Audio.

Naaah.
