(Withdrawn) Seeking to trade Spendor A5R

Hi, As per title, I'm looking to trade / part trade my Spendor A5R floorstanders for a pair of high quality standmount speakers as my room is too small for floorstanders. Although the Spendors have a small enough footprint and sealed cabinet, it's my nearfield listening position that is the hindranc...

Re: Wanted : Refined mature sounding standmounters

Thanks Derek, I nearly bought those of Ivor a while back but we never made the deal happen.
I am still intrigued by them, however I've never had the chance to try anything from Ref 3a so haven't the slightest idea how they would sound.
I'm guessing neutral enough.

Wanted : Refined mature sounding standmounters

Looking for a pair of civilised standmounters with a mature and refined 'unboosted' presentation for classical/opera, similar to Vienna acoustics.
Ideally something with an original retail price between 1K and 2K.

PM me if you're thinking of selling something,

Thanks,
Warren.

Re: Wanted : Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand

Thanks so much Maciej,
I was actually on the phone with them this morning and they won't ship them to me, strangely. They have the box but claim it to be insufficient.
Plenty of options via hifi shark but as you suggest, how trustworthy are they.
I definitely want to find a pair however.

Re: How von Karajan kept his von

It's funny, on a personal note Karajan is a conductor I've only recently developed a proper appreciation for. Never disliked him as such but for certain composers I always found him somewhat too 'lyrical'. It might be an age thing, the older I get the more I gravitate towards his sweeter rendering o...

[Withdrawn] Theta processor / DAC

Looking for one of the older Theta DACs, particularly the DS Pro Series - DS Pro - Progeny / Basic / Prime etc..
There's a few available throughout Europe but if I can pick one up locally that'd be even better. Based in Dublin.
Thanks, Warren.
