Complete Set of Five 2013 Anthony Gallo Speakers (Excellent/Mint)
I have completed my set of beloved Anthony Gallo Classico Speakers. I got the fronts, the CL-3's first, maybe a couple years ago. They are in perfect shape, just very light play. About a year ago I got the CL-C center channel, which is also as close to Mint as you can get. I just completed the set with two CL-1's which I got sent factory direct from England, those are mint, never been taken out of the box.
Recently I found out that these speakers have become somewhat of a collectible due to both their sound and value but mostly because these are the only speakers Gallo ever made with a non-metal spherical shape.
I've looked on ebay (and everywhere else) and these speakers are pretty much impossible to find (and selling well above msrp). Putting a whole set together would be approaching impossible.
If you added up the original msrp these five would have been about $3,000.
- All speakers are in the Black Ash Finish, still have the Original Box with the stryofoam casing for them all and 3/5 have the original owner's manual.
As somebody who has a small business that isnt able to get any incentive from the government. I am considering selling these. Something I would never consider otherwise.
My question to you audio experts is what would a set like this go for? The guy at Gallo said he would ballpark it around $5,000-$6,500 due to the reasons I have stated above. Some feedback would be great. something like 6k right now would be huge.
