I'm impervious to jealousy. I'll keep the speakers inside, nice and warm. And the house sits at ~7500', well over a mile high. The best thing about living here is I can tell my fellow trumpet players all my notes are high notes! :) (Probably have to be a brasshole to understand.)

Ah, a definite lack of oxygen, that explains things more clearly. ;)

Be sure to let me know so I can be there when the pallet arrives.

@Wombat -- Great thought, though I'll either have to raise my TV or get a projector and screen. Hmmm, seven Salon2's, should sound decent.

Your fault. You talked up the 8Cs and after mitchco's review, even I want it.

Revel bump, I am slightly surprised these haven’t sold, Revel just aren’t known or recognised in the U.K. that I suppose is due to the U.K. ‘distributor’ only selling direct for the last fifteen years.
A shame.

Superb sounding and measuring loudspeakers that deserve to be better known in the U.K.

Ray thanks very much indeed for the enquiry, yes of course.
But I would prefer if you took care of the shipping, I would give you the weight and dimensions .
The leakers are brand new and have never been removed from their boxes.
I would of course be able to reduce the price by 20% because you are outside the European Union.
Yours Sincerely,
Keith

Mile high club. But the speed of sound is slower up there isn't it? ;)

I would offer a black Sunday discount but they are already so reasonably priced.
Another dealer rather unkindly insinuated that the reason I cant sell them is that the previous ‘distributors’ were selling them at this sort of price anyway!

Keith, regrettably I am in US; otherwise, I'd buy the Salons in a heartbeat. Shipping to US would be costly for me - I would have to pay customs duties as well. Ray

Well certainly they did nothing to enhance the brand reputation, I must confess I’d probably go 8C over these if I were starting again.
