Looking to buy the end of game speakers, currently I have Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand. My amp is the Parasound a21 with the Parasound p5 pre amp, Marantz sa8001 sacd and the Marantz sr5001 avr, psa xs15se sub. My budget is 5 to 10k on main speaker upgrade.
I just found a seller a few hours away from me looking to sell some VA Acoustics Beethoven concert grand's in mint cond for 2k and I have a buyer for my Mozarts who will give 1k. I'm going to jump all over this!
Go for it Jug... Talk about a bargain... Vienna Speakers are uberperformers even if you got them new at full price... Beethoven Grands for $2K are total no brainers... They will take what Mozarts are good for and multiply it by 5! Let us know how things go.
Yeah how can I pass it up? I know what VA's sound like, and I don't know if the Beethoven Grand will sound any different than the Mozart's. but there will be more of it! if all goes well and my speakers sell ill get the Beethoven's for 1k plus the time and gas of a 4hr round trip drive.
Yep. Hard to beat finding a bargain price on a great speaker AND being able to sell your current one right away.
Several years ago I scored on a new (floor model) pair of Mirage M5si's on closeout at half price ($1K). I was able to turn around and sell my ADS L1090 ii's immediately for $675. Out of pocket for a dramatic upgrade to a $2K speaker: $325.
I still have those Mirages. They're the L-R anchors of my 7.2 HT system.
