:jawdrop: RUN! Well... I suppose "give away" may have many meanings.

For posterity:

Hi-End Beveridge Speakers Model 2 - great sound, need cosmetic work. We have no room left in our home - we are willing to give them away to someone who understands the quality of Beveridge speakers. Really!

I now have the Beveridge speakers mentioned in that thread.

Priced right

If I recall some of them had sperate bass commodes for the bass drivers, and then those towers pictured have a row of full range electrostatic ribbons which are more inside the unit which uses the tower itself to kind of be like a slotted horn for the ribbons, with there own power amps, and those are by all means a great pair of speakers! The guy I purchased one of my speaker sets sold me his after getting a pair of these. If I lived in PA I would have already broke all the speeding laws to get there first.

Lucky you, did the ones you got have amps in them or where the orginal amps removed?

 

[CarnahanBB]

Holy crap...score doesn't begin to quantify that.

Good job, those look interesting. :thmbsp:

You are very lucky, I hate you.

Over at the Old Woodworking Machinery forum the expression is

People long for the day when they can earn a You Suck!
I'll never forget my first.

Huh, those are right up the road...

 

[Audio Fan]

Just to be clear, I have the ones mentioned in the 2007 thread, not the ones on CL in the original post.

Mine are the later Model 5 and do not have the built-in amps.

Yes,

I could practically walk to New Hope from my house. Caught these when they were the top post. E-mailed twice over the course of 10 hours but received no reply.

Glad there are some members close by, hopefully one of us will get them. I was going to inquire about them but thought someone else would appreciate them more. I probably wou:screwy:ld have ended up stripping them for the tubes and iron.

Just kidding.
