Hi there,

In short, should I buy this ASAP? Is it too good to ignore? Someone offered to sell me their Genelec 8331 (mint with box, receipts, etc) for $2500 USD.

I have a pair of Eve SC208s for my desktop setup with a pair of Martin Logan 1000W 12" subs. Connected to an SMSL M200. I actually feel quite satisfied with the Eve SC208s. If I'm between subs, they'll go sufficiently low as to not leave me left too unsatisfied. The mids could be better though.

I do not work with music or audio at all. I just like nice speakers - i usually just listen to music on itunes, youtube, listen to podcasts, or watch films.

I also have a 5.1 setup with Eve front speakers and Genelec 8010 surrounds.

The last time I saw a pair of used 8331, the asking price was around $3900, and they were sold in 2 days. So yeah, if the pair you saw were in good condition it's a good deal. Even if you don't like the sound, you can resell them later and probably would end up with more money on hand.
