You are correct, my post was bollox. I've edited it. I was thinking of corner Chatsworths. Let me try and find a picture/drawing.

Downright stupid
These are funny things, I had a pair of Wharfedale Rosedale speakers in my workshop for a bit that had identical cabinets! Bloody ugly...

Funny you should mention eBay, it's where I found a picture of Chatsworths.

You are a very, very bad man, tempting me like that.
Getting on so well with the 10"s that I've now landed a nice pair of LGMs with 12" drivers.
Guy is delivering them on Saturday so I'll report in on arrival.

25Kg per speaker apparentlyHow much did that set you back?
£475 the pair for the speakers.
Seller is driving up from Bristol next weekend and kindly offered to deliver which is a godsend and saves a lot of hassle.
Clean unmarked cabs and minty drivers apparently so me very excited

I found some pics and they look superb. I like the adjustment of baffle step and high treble
While I am excited for you Rob, I think you need a bigger house!
Yes, big gold pins that you plug in the front - a bit like those old telephone exchanges
Or a Sale.
.... are they really 25kg? .... didn't realise.
According to this seller they are. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronic...d-stands/Floor-speakers/auction-154232208.htm
Thats a lot of speaker!
Ahh well, night night.

Excellent. I look forward to hearing about this, and how they compare to the 10".
25kgs is a good weight for a largish speaker.
I've just spotted these on sale for around 4k UKP in Nagoya.
RHR Specials, apparently. Available from Sound Julia
£475 the pair for the speakers.

Well done Rob! You couldn't resist keeping up with us 12" and 15" size queens!
I am sure they will be excellent. When you get them set up I really must come over to listen.
I really must organise a nerdfest at mine too.

I like the look of these Joel, not seen them before, were these only sold in the Far East? Wonder what they sound like.

Dev, To make you even more jealous, I paid £280 for my System 12 DMT II monitors!

:grrr:.where?, how?, when? :grrr:
For that price I'd have bought them even at the risk of upsetting the boss. Not that I need another pair of speakers, but why is that important?.
