Description

##- I will consider trades ##

These Big Boys are the "build the best speakers possible, heres a blank cheque." They cost NZ$13700 in 2002 representing a massive price/performance ratio. Similar top of the range speakers cost substantially more than these. There are 7 speakers per box, 3 x 8 inch bass woofers, 2 x 4.5 inch mids and 2 tweeters. One Tweeter is on the rear panel, firing backwards into the room. The rear unit can be switched in or out of circuit with a jumper bar above the terminals, and compensates the speaker's in-room balance for the front HF unit's increasing directionality in its top octaves. The tweeters themselves are 1" units branded "PSB" but made in Norway, presumably by SEAS. They feature an aluminum dome and a neodymium magnet and are specified as offering usable response to 40kHz.

The midrange units, again sourced from a Norwegian manufacturer, use woven-fiberglass cones and rubber half-roll surrounds. They are arranged in a D'Appolito array above and below the tweeter, which optimizes the dispersion in the midrange and treble.

Each midrange unit is constructed on a low-profile diecast chassis and housed in its own sealed subchamber.

The three woofers, use woven-fiberglass cones and rubber half-roll surrounds, these generously dimensioned to allow the large excursions required by high-level low-frequency sounds. A 40-oz magnet structure provides the necessary muscle power, with a magnet circuit optimized for low distortion.

These are true End Game speakers, pair with the right components for musical heaven.

Pickup only, I'm not risking these getting damaged in transit.
