Further Information: I've owned these for approximately 5 years. I bought them from a mate who was the original purchaser from Mike.
They are a sensational speaker - very neutral, detailed and revealing. Unfortunately, in my listening area I just cannot do them justice. They need space around them and air to breathe, but I can't do that in my setup.
They look absolutely magnificent in the Piano Gloss Black with leather surrounds. They are unmarked other than the footprints from the ETI toppers that I had on them.
I drove them with a PrimaLuna Prologue valve amp which, while it sounded lovely, didn't really have enough juice to really make them sing. When I hooked them up to my Denon PMA-2500 it was a different story. Sublime! The most natural vocals I have heard from any speaker I have heard or owned.
The speakers had an introductory RRP of $4990 upon release, jumping to $5995 (I believe) as standard.

The first few photos are of my actual speakers, but I have also borrowed from a previous advert because they show off the speakers better, They are identical in presentation.
Sorry, but pickup only on these unless you want to organise your own courier. I do not have the original boxes or suitable packaging. (I did a road trip Mel-Syd-Mel to collect them from my mate. They were well worth it!)
