I'm after a pair of these speakers, after really enjoying listening to some. 18 bit would be fine (I'm on a budget). Flexible about colour
Cosmetic condition doesn't need to be perfect - just not to look too rough from listening position. I'd also need an MSR and cables.

What probably makes this a long shot is that the speakers would need to get to me in Scotland. Figured there's no harm in asking, though - anyone looking to sell?

Yep I am. Have them boxed in original boxes and they worked good when I packed them a couple of years ago. Black ash. Includes remote, cables and a DIP. Sending to Scotland is probably not a big deal. PM me if interested. I think “recapping” is advisable, at least when I read some of the related posts it seems to make a big difference.

Cheers!

Hi Battered,

Not sure how the search is progressing, but noticed a pair of 24/96 DSP5K’s for sale in Cupar - which from my elementary geographic knowledge is in your neck ‘o the woods ?

They’re on both eBay and gumtree , look reasonable condition with all leads and a MSR4.

Might be worth a look if you can take a source to try them.

Good luck,
Gary

Many thanks for the recommendation.

I've already had a conversation. The main issue is distance!

I don't have the original packing for the speakers, which limits them to collection or local(ish) delivery. Unfortunately, Scotland is just outside my delivery zone!

I've also offered my re-capping services for any pair he may eventually purchase.

Cheers,

Steve

That pair in Scotland are on special offer he’s knocked £100 off taking it down to £499 just been sent an alert. If you want these speakers and are local what not to go for !!.
They look far better than the other pair that’s for sure and nearly the same price!
