I’m the original owner of this kit built speaker. They are truly spectacular and live up to every word of the original write up by Dayton Audio. As shown in the pictures, there are a few minor scuffs on the corners of the cabinets from moving a few times since I assembled them. Crossovers, posts, woofer, tweeter & grills are in excellent condition.

Selling (with major regret) due to a downsize. Even our dog was heartbroken . . . (Sorry, Madi the wonder dog not included)

Size is 17”tall x 10” wide x 13” deep (with grill)

If you are local to 28465, I can demo before purchase.

$325 for the pair. Original price was $600 for the pair as a kit.

Paypal only. I'll cover Paypal fees, buyer pays for shipping from 28465.




From Dayton Audio:
The Usher 701 is a classic two-way bookshelf system possessing accuracy, detail, and a transparency that must be heard to be believed! The bass response is articulate and effortless, the midrange is balanced and extremely accurate, and the high frequencies are smooth yet detailed.

This speaker kit was created for Dayton Audio by world-renowned audio authority Dr. Joseph D'Appolito. Dr. D'Appolito's engineering prowess, in combination with the Usher 9930 1-1/8" tweeter and 8945A 7" woofer, has produced what we feel is one of the most exciting speaker kits available.

Joe D'Appolito designed a speaker that is smooth and non-fatiguing, with accuracy rivaling that of many commercial studio monitors. Proven-quality Dayton and Jantzen components are used in the superbly optimized crossover. The speaker's on-axis frequency response is flat within +/- 1.7 dB from 100-20,000 Hz.

Dr. D'Appolito summed up the Usher 701 kit perfectly when he said, "I'm quite satisfied with the results!", and you will be too! This speaker is reasonably priced and easy to assemble, making it perfect for any audiophile – novice or experienced.

Available in choice of cabinet finishes (gloss black, cherry, maple), and in straight- or arc-sided versions. Sold individually.

Thanks for all the questions I’ve received on these. Remodel project is picking up the pace so I’ll be dropping them off at Vintage Audio Exchange in Jamestown, NC for sale on consignment Thursday, April 15th. If any interest before then, please let me know.
