Well, I picked them up last night from the original owner for a very fair price, mint, with all packing materials. The owner's setup wasn't the best (had the gain turned way down on the amp, which seemed to limit the current and add noise) but I see the potential to build out a really fun, rocking setup.
I wasn't that impressed with the midrange which seems to lack detail and is a bit recessed, but the top end is nice and smooth. They can set a wide, deep soundstage. Bass seemed tight and smooth. And my feet and fingers were tapping--pretty musical for large, entry level speakers.
Now to find the right amplifier....he he he. Am thinking Bel Canto Ref 1000 monoblocks, Krell, Pass, Parasound Halo, McCormack DNA 500....something big.
Thanks Tony for your advice!
