May I Please Hear Your Quad 57s or Open Baffles?



Might there be anyone on Long Island or in the NYC area who has Quad 57s?

Or any Acoustat 3s or 4s?

Or any Open Baffle speakers, be they Lowthers or

or http://www.pureaudioproject.com/

….or you name it.

I’ve googled for hours but can’t find any possible local owners.

Flying’s a problem, so traveling hundreds of miles is not an option.

Willing to pay a reasonable fee for a 1/2 hour session.

Thanks

Looking to buy a pair?

They are pretty special.  If you have any plans to visit Nashville, you'll be welcome to listen.

I'm in central CT (near Hartford).  I have some DIY OB speakers; you're  welcome to come up and hear them anytime.  Just bring the beer, wine or other beverage and your favorite tunes and we can have a listen. 


Come to Canada (Ontario) and I will let you hear my WPK 57's and Acoustat 3's.

The Acoustat 3 are very nice speakers, but the Quads make them sound colored.    

Robin Wyatt is somewhere in the NY metro area- Jersey I thought. He was often demoing with restored Quad 57s. To me, there is no other speaker like it. If all else fails, reach out to Robin- he has a website and is an active, but small, importer/dealer.
My 57s are in boxes awaiting restoration. Have had various Quads since the early ’70s though I now use horns.
good luck,

Sorry to diverge, but have you considered Quad 2912? I have pairs of 2905's, and with some modification, they can sound very transparent indeed. Have you auditioned the big new Quads, Whart?
