I would rather sell a different pair however these speakers are alot easier to sell because they are such classics known for their accurate sound  reproduction. Cosmetically speaking, the cabinets are in excellent condition (very minor scratches).  I'll give them a 9 rating here.The drivers consists of a 1" dome tweeter,  2" midrange and a 10" butyl rubber woofer and all the drivers work perfectly. These are high end drivers that sound great with any type of music from jazz to rock. The highs are smooth and crisp and voices are clear not overbearing.Although they are not big on bass....the lows are tight without any boominess. You will enjoy listening to these speakers especially if you have a large room allowing for a wide soundstage. Now for the bad news....I will not package these up for shipping...they're too big and heavy and I would hate to for them to be damaged in transit. However if you must have them shipped then I will bring them over to a UPS (or FEDEX) store and you will be responsible for all packaging/shipping costs (you will pay exactly what it costs!). I can personally deliver them for $0.50/mile (up to 100 miles round trip ) Today these speakers would probably retail for over $1000  and that's having them made in China.  You're welcome to pick them up and you can listen to them as well. The speakers are  located in Sparta, NJ (07871).  Just keep in mind that the further West you are from NJ, the more expensive it becomes to ship. If you want to get an estimate regarding shipping costs..go to www.fedex.com and use my zipcode as shipping origin, 50 lbs. and 30 x 18 x 16 as packaging details. The cost to package is separate and should cost $20-30/speaker. They would provide the box, packing material and their (Kinko's or UPS) labor. The shipping company is responsible for any damage in transit. I make no money on shipping nor do I charge a handling fee! PLEASE KEEP IN MIND...THE SHIPPING CALCULATOR IS AN ESTIMATE AND DOES NOT INCLUDE THE PACKAGING COSTS. Side Note: I've been selling audio equipment on Ebay for almost 7 years and have never had a return. The reason is that I check out all the equipment before listing it and offer a 30 day guarantee.  These speakers have been play tested for over 4 months and they sound fantastic...no issues. I never try to push speakers because a high quality speaker doesn't need to be played loud in order to sound good.  The Facts Stands are not included in this auction however I recommend that speakers be 12-18 inches off the floor for best sound. *10 inch woofers have butyl rubber surrounds that will never deteriorate.  They produce deep, satifying bass without booming. * 2 inch soft dome midrange drivers- great presence and outstanding imaging * 1 inch soft dome tweeters produce sweet, crisp, clean highs * cabinets measure 25.5x14x11 (HxWxD) weigh about 40 lbs each * grille assemblies are nearly perfect, badges are intact * fully tested, all drivers and crossovers perform as designed     Place a Bid!
