    Before Brian O'Rourke set up Ruark there was Diesis.This beautiful 2-way sealed box design was much feted at the time and still sounds fantastic... really well balanced, musical and easy to listen to for several hours.

    A review here...

    This pair are in excellent working order with drive units that look in amazing condition... there's no deterioration in the surrounds at all. Grilles are in good shape for their age too, with no breaks and their original logos attached... bit of white stuff on the rear of one of them, re-covering them would be easy.

    Real wood veneer cabinets have lots of microscratches and one has a more obvious veneer split on the rear panel and a very small dent (front baffle, bottom left) but nothing worse than that - wouldn't take much to restore these. Collection welcomed, but can ship, probably in two separate boxes.

    Price? £40 plus carriage. Will double box and get them into one package... say about £13.

    Happy to demo too, personal collection welcomed from North Beds :)
