While I totally respect any persons right to ask what ever price they want for something and these speakers "should " go for a premium price as long as the voice coils aren't frozen, this seems like someone asking for a ransom or you don;t get your dog back.
In all fairness to the seller they sure look pretty and these are definitely the rare of the rare.
I have been looking for a pair of 300i's or Boston Acoustic C700 plates for a few weeks now and have decided there is enough interest in these types of speakers that I am going to see if there
is some way I can resurrect the re- manufacture of these speakers or something like them .
If someone has a pair for sale at less then the NOrdstroms price of these beauties I would be interested in buying them. I am also interested in units that may have bad speakers in themor scuffed up frames but they should be the original drivers so that I can compare their parameters to something new currently being built.
