Are These Finds Good Deals?

I just dug a little bit and found out that Warfedale makes those. Build quality looks solid, specs aren't bad and they seem to review well. I couldn't find any measurements tho.

They are made by the same company that owns Wharfedale and a couple other brands ... I would expect them to be more detailed and balanced compared to the Yamaha speakers ... Mission speakers have been around for a long time

In my living room for over 6 months now.

You should check the Mordaunt Short speakers out.

Nice. I missed out, I was supposed to confirm this morning but got busy at work. Another guy showed up this afternoon and snapped them up. Oh well.

These are possibly interesting although not interested in buying. Seems to be a bit of negative concensus here in regards to b&w

Hmm... $8K down from $20K when new. Says they do not have the bases - my question is why? Where did they go? WHAT DID YOU DO WITH THE BASES!!?! It's all moot as I don't have the extra eight big ones laying around, but it is intriguing...

Oh cool, he has the Klipschorn corner cabinets as well. My dad had something similar in kit form with Electrovoice drivers running off a Scott kit built tube amp. My first foray into hi-fi listening. Man did that old gear ever sound sweet.

Hmmm dunno if I can fit anymore speakers in my small apt. Maybe I can sell the Polks PC setup, although they do sound good for what I use it for. Ok why should I get them Z?

Because they are the former popular Mordaunt Short Carnival speakers ... Similar to the Cambridge Audio S30 ... I would take them over Polk and them Moukey speakers that you linked

Now these look very interesting. I've never even heard of the company, but these speakers look legit and they look beautiful. Acoustic Zen Adiago TL towers for $1750.

There's something about them that just really grabs me. They have ribbon tweets too. Anyone ever heard of them?
