    I'm thinking of selling my fantastic Dynaudio speakers, with much reluctance, I have to add. Due to a reduction of my working hours and ever increasing bills!
    These are mint in Black Ash, with matching Stand 4 stands, also in black. I have all the boxes and manuals etc. for the speakers and stands. There is one slight mark on the base of one of the stands, but it's hardly noticeable, as it's at the back.
    I can post pics, but wanted to see what reaction I get from this thread first, if indeed there is any interest.
    The current retail price with stands is £2789.00. I'd be looking for around £1600.00 ish. They are only 1 year old.
    Let me know what you think.
    I would ship abroad, but buyer would have to pay full costs and inurance.
    Cheers

    I take it from the response, that I'm off a bit with the price. Anyone have any ideas what I should be asking for these?

    Cheers

    Ok, what about £1450.00?

    Also, as I need the money, I'm thinking of selling my Audio Synthesis Passion 8M pre-amp and my 3 month old NVA A80 mono's. The pre-amp is the best passive that AS have ever made, David Heaton from AS uses one himself in his home system. I'm thinking of around £750.00 or thereabouts for that. The A80's are only 3 months old and as they cost £1200.00 new, I'm thinking of around £800.00 for those.

    Let me know what you think and if these prices are fair etc....

    Man you guys are tough! :D Am I getting nearer at £1400.00?

    I can reduce the price of my Pre too if that helps....? Say £699.00.

    Here's a few pics of the items for sale. As I'm rubbish at photo's, there isn't one of my NVA's as they just reflect the flash and look pants! It also shows all the dust and as they are acting like mirrors shows all sorts of cables and stuff, anyway if you've seen one NVA box, you've seem 'em all!
    Just notice the small scratches on the back of the base of one of the speaker stands, other than that all the kit is mint. The AS is very good for it's age and I have the box as well for it.

    Mods, could you change the title of this thread to 'FS: Dynaudio, Audio Synthesis and NVA' please. That would be more reflective of it's contents now.

    Thank you.

    What a shame. Yes it's awesome. If I could afford to keep it I would. I'm trying desperately to come up with another solution other then selling these items.... maybe a kidney or something! Anyway if you change your mind....

    Good news, the preamp has now been sold. Please feel free to make me an offer on the speakers and power amps.

    Right, I need to get serious...... If anybody wants to make an offer, then please go ahead, I'll only say no if it's too low.

    As a starter I'm dropping the price of the Dynaudio's to £1200.00! Remember, these speakers are now nearly £2800.00 new! Thats a major saving.

    Out of desperation I'm dropping the price to £750.00. Next stop will be e-bay, but that's a last resort!

    Cheers
