I finally decided to pull the trigger. But on www.hidden-audio.de website, walnut ones, 979€ included shipping :)
Happy Christmas to me! eheh...
Nice, I got myself a pair of R5 in walnut for the living room. Easier with kids around.

Ha, are the plant pot & lamp adornments to the top of the speakers a WAF effect?! :D

At your service. The wall is far from a straight tight line in the corner.

Will get a strip of white plastic to make it look better.

Today and only today there is an additional 15% rebate on all passive speakers at Hidden Audio. I have bought my KEFs there, it's a reliable (albeit slow in my case since there were issues with delivery from KEF) shop.

Seriously, that is a fantastic price.

EDIT: Damn, too slow :)

EDIT 2:
Good deal as well, 3-way coaxial center for 230€: https://hidden-audio.de/product/ela...utsprecher-stueckpreis-schwarz-vinyl-1009803/

Screw it, for this money i have to have a pair.

Got another 3% by paying per bank transfer up front, so i'm now at 288.57 €. Their bank number is either a Sparkasse or Deutsche Bank, seems legit enough.

They are legit but a bit unorganized.
I ordered my R5s, speaker cable and an AVR there. The AVR was delivered quickly with the box cut open and the cable tossed in there. That was the only package DHL showed for the order, so I called them and asked abpout the speakers. Turns out they forgot to tell me that they didn't get them from KEF yet but they would be delivered within a week or so. Two weeks later I called them again and asked about the speakers. They didn't get them yet and couldn't say when. I suggested I would take them in any colorway (they were on sale in white only, that was the only reason I ordered them in white). They said ok and I quickly recieved a black pair of R5s without any further issues.
Can't really blame them for the issues, I experience the same supply chain constraints at work. Only the packaging of the AVR was questionable, maybe they ran out of boxes ...

They do, shipping is done with DHL if the package is below 31.5kg, above it's GLS.
Shipping is free in Germany above 100€, i would guess 20 to 25€ inside EU, more outside.

It's good to get a positive report that they actually send out the goods and are approachable if there is a problem.

They do write that they send their wares in original packaging, which makes sense to me. However, opening a box and tossing something else in there can fire back.
I had a LS50 Meta membrane scratched by a free speaker cable once.:facepalm:

Can't wait to see them in a battle of mortal combat against my LS50 (without meta) ;-)

They say shipping is 5 to 10 working days. They dropship, probably from the manufacturers inventory itself.

They do, and if you look at their clearance sale you can see why. Their storage is full of random junk like this:

Happy New Year!!!

Thanks @VintageFlanker for posting the deal. I ordered also a pair at 349. They shipped it after 3 days and it's still en route, will be delivered by DHL. I ordered also some banana plugs, I guess they have put them inside the speakers, hopefully everything goes well.

@3125b Seems all entertainment/movie/game/electronics related however. Maybe they bought contracts with a larger distributor from a failing business?


Anyway, i was looking what else they got, and found those:
They aren't exactly SVS, but they should give the DBRs some boom. I also have an unused MiniDSP 2x4 HD.

Getting two, the code 202320235 gets 5% and another 3% for bank transfer, result is 200.89 €.
