When A Bargain Is More Than A Bargain

Through All This Years Of Having To Listen To A Lot Of Bookshelf Speakers, Only A Few Really Took My Attention, Still , That Is Bookshelf Or Stand Mounted , 99% They All Do Their Job Nicelly, But I Kid You Not, I Came Across A Pair Of Castle Front Satellite Spkrs, Retail For £ 249.00, I Was Absolubtlly ...well In Dismay At How Such A Small Speaker Can Perform Like Any Floor Stander, Staging Is Like This Migets Don't Exist..any One Heard Them ? Regards Nando.

 

Which model are we talking?

 

Sorry Nando, I have to say your cap-locking is hilarious!

 

That Takes Some Time To Type Out...IMO...

 

hey what can you say, it is suposed to be entertaining, forgive me ,thanks regards nando.

 

Castle

Maybe I should go for a name change (strokes chin).

 

nice nuts, sorry no burr, and the picture that you see are maple as a standard finish, same ones that i am using, if you can do try to listen to them, nando,

 

Does "Grey Birds-Eye Maple" merely sound better than "Burnt In A House Fire" ??

 

why, did they burnt you out of the wig..or maybe colour does make the sound brighter ! people, do like to see a "how should i put it" i know a famous footty manager once said "SEXY FOOTBALL", OOH SEXY BOXES, try to listen to what's about, give everything a chance, p.s. miss you from other forum. nando

 

Oh I'm sure its a lovely speaker Nando. My father had some Castle Severn's which I always liked ... never been all that sure about some of the finishes mind, but the "burnt plank of wood out of a bonfire" finish is the most interesting yet

If the sexiness of the finish was a big issue here, I don't thnk the Yams would have got houseroom tbh.

Which forum?

 

hi uncle, they come iin various finishes including antique oak,walnut,rosewood..etc.etc.except yew,shortage of trees i am afraid, forget other forum we do not wear wigs. nando

 

According to my latest copy of 'Vogue' (DPRK Edition) this look will be 'all the rage' in '07.

 

vogue or vage? nando

 

I used to own the castle richmonds 3i's. There where a fantastic speaker for the money. The only quibble was a lack of bass which i know have in my castle seven 2's.
