Wharfedale Diamond 9.6 Tower Speakers (black) - $570/pr SHIPPED ::: RETAIL: $1000 500.00 for LOCAL - these speakers retail for $1000 brand new, however i reduce the price dramatically due to the fact that there is a slight dent on the back of one speaker due to shipping. Its nothing serious and can be easily hidden or painted over. Keep in mind it does not affect the sound at all. Serious buyers can get a picture of it through email. here are some reviews and info you can read on the 9.6 http://www.audioenz.co.nz/2005/wharfedale_diamond9-6.shtml http://www.theabsolutesound.com/newsletter/153/wharfedale.html http://www.audioadvisor.com/store/productdetail.asp?sku=WHARFD9%2E6B&product_name=Diamond%209%2E6%20Four-Way%20Tower%20Speakers%20-%20Pair there is also a review on avguide.com in a pdf file on the complete 9.6 5.1 setup.
