There has been a lot of interest in Ralph Waters joining the forum, and there have been plenty of members posting comments on Ralph's new member introduction thread about their enjoyment of the products. As a former retailer (now retired) of Australian speakers including Richter throughout the 1990s, I've dug out my brochures and scanned them as pdfs. Rather than add them to that intro thread I'll post them here. Moderators can decide if they want them on that thread as well.

Item: Mission 753 rosewood floorstanding loudspeakers Location: Melbourne Price: $1000 Item Condition: Used good condition Reason for selling: Surplus to requirement Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: These vintage speakers sound fine and look beautiful. One-owner since 1994. Played 1-2 hours per week. Covered when not in use. Very good condition for age. Flaking paint (see photos) from metal plinth are due to ageing, not from being knocked around. Original packaging and manuals. Their design and performance were well received critically in the mid-1990s. The design is 5 drivers, 2.5 way (the upper 2 cones do midrange-upper bass, the lower 2 cones do low bass), bass-reflex ported. A few years ago, I auditioned speakers around the $10,000 range and decided to keep these because I felt there was no significant step-up in sound quality. The original aluminium-coated tweeter was good, but could sound mildly harsh when played loud. Instead, the professionals at Speakerbits were commissioned to upgrade the tweeters. The Scanspeak textile domes have added refinement and air to the treble - they literally sound better than new. Well suited for acoustic, electronic, or vocal music. They could be used in a home theatre set-up without subwoofers, however I think they are first and foremost audiophile speakers for a dedicated stereo system. Although I have not used them with valve amplification, there should be no difficulty with the 6ohm impedance and 90db sensitivity. They were designed to be positioned close-to-wall, facing-straight-out. To get the best out of these, I would not recommend them for listening rooms smaller than 3.5 x 4m. Recommended placement is 1.8-2m apart, at least 20cm from rear wall and at least 50cm from side walls. You will need cables with banana-plug, angled or smaller spade terminations to fit in the recessed binding-posts. Link-rods for binding posts and floor spikes included. With good ancillary equipment and proper set-up, these speakers will stand up to comparison with much more expensive new models. It would be hard to obtain this sound quality for the asking price. I am selling these because they are not used enough. My wife wants me to sell them to make room, though I think it should be the other way around. Can demo for potential buyer. Cash on pick-up.

Item: REDEFY AUDIO 2 PERTH - BROWN/ BLACK -TIGER STRIPED. Location: PERTH Price: $7000 - 6 MONTHS OLD - new 8500 less than 20 hours. Item Condition: ONE MINT - OTHER 2 SMALL ISSUES Reason for selling: CHANCE TO CHANGE ROOM AND SYSTEM Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal PLUS FEES ETC, COD Only PREFER LOCAL BUYER - I SHIPPED FROM OVER EAST AND CAN SHIP BACK IF PACK AND SEND OR SOMEONE PACKS AND SHIPS PROPERLY. Extra Info: Left speaker with bass unit on right hand side has a slight nick in the top front edge from moving into place, its like a tiny nick in a resin cover over wood- hard to see unless close up - I have touched up and probably could do better but you cannot really see it unless close up. and when the speakers arrived the tweeter was not working, I tried to undo the horn Allen keys but resin varnish was holding in place i spoke to Henry from Redefy Audio who created them and after touching up the scratch marks on the allen keys and removing the bass driver to find a simple loose solder joint to the tweeter so 2 secs and one solder later and they fired up beautifully... They are very very special speakers and sound amazing, and would be 3-4 times the price if a well known international brand, the bass just thumps you in the chest and the horn loaded tweeter supply sublime top ends, a lovely combination detailed by Edgar Kramer on 6 moons perfectly. Eith high end Italian drivers and a sublime build and finish they are amazing speakers and no need for a sub with a 15 inch driver each side, they are simply too big for my wife and my 3.5 metre wide room and only selling to get a forward facing set of bass drivers for my room set up otherwise i would keep forever they are that good. 94DB AT 8 OHM SO VERY EFFICIENT AND WORKED WELL WITH MY WESTON ACOUSTICS TUBE OR PS AUDIO BHK PRE POWER. Henry and Redefy Audio offers great support on these speakers and answered my queries when on holiday and is a very regular SNA member. Apologies they need a dust and polish. Frequency Response - 30hz - 20khz (20hz in room) Impedance - 8ohm Efficiency - 94db Power Handling - 1000W Dimensions - W 280mm x H 1100mm x D 468mm Drivers - 1" Horn Loaded Tweeter 8" Midrange 15" Bass Weight - 65kg each Edgar Kramer does a great review in 6 moons http://6moons.com/audioreviews2/redefy/1.html Conclusion. The Redefy Audio Two are true 3-way designs featuring high-efficiency drivers, an extremely well-built and finished enclosure and thorough overall engineering for what is, these days, a very reasonable $8500 asking price. Henry Kristanto had a self-imposed mandate: launch a brand of speakers offering superb overall performance at affordable prices. In this intro, I asked "does the world really need another speaker manufacturer?" Henry Kristanto's Redefy Audio's Two has answered with a blaring bugle blow. And it's a blast asserting a resounding ‘Yes!' Based on the excellence of the Two, I'd wholeheartedly agree and call this a superb addition to the local and hopefully soon global high-end speaker landscape.

Item: Neat Critique Speakers Location:Sydney Price: $430 ono Item Condition: Very good indeed, with original box Reason for selling: now have too many speakers, and building more! Payment Method: Cash, Paypal, Direct deposit Extra Info: A beautiful, mellow sounding UK speaker with a very comfortable mix of detail and good bass for size. Neat speakers are certainly not cheap to buy new, so these are excellent value at this price. Update: found some specs - 8ohms, recommended power 25-150w, efficiency 86dB. I wouldn't have thought the efficiency was that low, they seem easy enough! The cabinets are superb, much better than I can make, and I'll regret losing that beauty to look at as well as listen to, but it has become necessary to thin the herd. (some connection loops included for the biwirable sockets to enable single connection) Freight can be organised at buyer's expense and risk, via Aust Post if possible, otherwise courier.

Item: Sonus Faber Cremona M Floorstander Loudspeakers (Graphite) Location: Melbourne Price: Withdrawn Item Condition: Used, in excellent condition. Approximately 5 years old. Reason for selling: Going to try something different Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal Extra Info:These are amazing speakers, able to play almost any type of music with ease and finesse. They are a beautifully crafted, handmade in Italy and visually stunning. The speakers are in Melbourne but I no longer have the shipping boxes - would need to be local pickup only. There are some really great reviews of these speakers on the internet. I would characterise their sound as warm to neutral, and to get to their best, sourced from a detailed DAC, with an amplifier able to control bass well. Currently playing with Karan Integrated amplifier and Meitner DAC. Pictures: Some preliminary photo's. Note the strings are in top shape and there are no marks on the speakers - a bit of house dust is about the extent of it.

Item: Three-way Bipolar, large floor standers Location: Sydney Price: $600 (or near offer - see notes) Item Condition: good, used, DIY project Reason for selling: that's what I do after each build. Too many speakers already. Payment Method: Cash, Bank Deposit, Paypal Extra Info: These are my latest build, my hobby, not for profit. I’ve tried out a new look, and a bipolar arrangement with one midrange facing forward (Marantz) and an oval one facing backwards (Magnavox). Sitting above these is a little silk dome tweeter in a custom-made housing. I’ve written for Sound & Image magazine on speakers that radiate forward and aft, and I have a number of speakers that do just that, or even a full 360 degrees. The bipolar or omni effect adds to soundstage depth and overall spaciousness. The 12” woofer is housed in its own rear-vented 100 litre enclosure, and the bass response is down to 40Hz, not sure where it peters out exactly but there’s nothing much happening at 30Hz. My test tone disc offers 30 and 40, but nothing in between! Anyway, to go below 40Hz in a new speaker these days you’re probably looking at the best part of three thousand. These work well with jazz, classical, popular and I’ve even tried a bit of dance/trance to good effect – Infected Mushroom’s BP Empire gives a good workout. You might get more bass with a Peerless or some other woofer, but it would most likely add $200+ to the price. Cosmetics are imperfect. Some might say rough! I do the best I can with the rough and ready home workshop setup, but I have to admit there are numerous flaws. My stuff will never look shop-bought, however they look impressive enough, and the sound is the main event. I try to achieve a level of detail that’s lifelike but not edgy or stressful. Combine this with a fairly full frequency range and you have an enjoyable experience. I only make one of each model, so every pair I make is a one-off. The top boxes will be attached with tiny silver brackets but I haven't fixed those at the time of writing as I was still playing with some resistors to balance the mid and top end reponse vis a vis the woofer. I'm working in a room which is on the live side, one with more drapes or bookshelves, soft furnishings etc will alter the end result a bit, changing the treble/bass balance. Bass loading varies quite a bit from room to room anyway. This room is bass light if anything. Dimensions etc: the bass boxes stand 860x480x340mm approx., while the top housing adds a further 140mm plus 60mm for the tweeter, for an overall height of 1060mm. Impedance at rest is 7.5 ohms. I’m guessing about efficiency, probably in the 88-90dB area. They are biwirable, but this will make little difference unless you bi-amp. (The design is in part inspired by the Technics SB-7000) Price: make an offer. My asking price includes delivery by me in the Sydney area. Since I can’t offer a demo here at my place, we can do that at your place, but a charge will apply if not purchased. Delivery: Depends where you are. I’m fairly flexible about home delivery in the Sydney area. Difficult to pack and send, but ask me about that anyway. There may be a way, if the right packing materials can be found. Pictures:

Item: PIEGA Classic 7.0 Location: CANBERRA Price: $ 3,000 Item Condition: EXCELLENT. As new condition Reason for selling: Too many pair of speakers, no room for them. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, COD Only Extra Info: The speakers are in as new condition, haven't been used and were boxed in 3 months ago. Purchased in April from an authorised dealer. There's just not enough room for another pair of speakers. A matching 2M twin leads Piega speaker cables is included with this price. I just need them to go to good home as I have no room for them. Will definitely suit new buyer who appreciates sweet clear sound. I have the original boxes so shipping is possible at buyer's expense. Pictures:

Item: Neat Critique two-way speakers, beautiful in sound and looks Location: Sydney Price: $475 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Too many speakers in the house Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: Hard to part with these but I am still building speakers and there's only so much room in the house. They are a boutique UK brand which commands high prices so these are a bargain. The timber finish is superb, I'll never be able to match it in my builds. Sound is full and smooth with enough detail without being harsh or edgy. If you need freight then best organise it from your end - I cannot go guarantor for what couriers might do, but these do come with their original box and internal packing, so that's a plus. Companies like Interparcel give you rates comparable with Australia Post, and once booked you can send me the pdf labels to attach. Each speaker is approx. 320x220x240 (hwd). I'll get the total packed dimensions sorted and add later. Pictures:

Axis speakers exhibit superlative craftsmanship with exceptional build quality all in the service of music. We believe Axis loudspeakers are accurate instruments with a slavish dedication to realistic music reproduction… and reviewers and critics around the world wholeheartedly agree. Axis Loudspeakers products encompass the love of music and fervent passion of the designers. John Reilly and Brad Serhan have skilfully voiced the speakers to satisfy the most demanding listener – whether audiophile, music lover or professional sound engineer. We know that, when it comes to audio purchasing, passion and an individual’s discernment play a major role. This is the reason we design and manufacture not to a price but to a standard. With this goal we can be confident that we’re offering the best we can achieve under a given construct and that the product will reflect the best possible performance and build quality. Our Designers John Reilly A self-taught drummer since the age of nine, John Reilly’s musical curiosity arose from the influence of his father who played steel guitar in a Hawaiian band. John’s love of music led him to a long career in the audio industry. He has had successful stints in retail and was a partner in a major Australian audio distributor which represented a number of global brands some of which included Bose, Acoustic Research, McIntosh, Velodyne and many more. John started Axis Loudspeakers and evolved the product range to include several high quality stereo models and a number of speakers and subwoofers designed for home theatre applications. He is extremely proud of the fact that all models offered by Axis at the time were recipients of Awards for excellence. After a hiatus, John has returned to his passion: designing and building the best possible loudspeakers within his strict quality criterion. Having always valued music over the equipment, John nevertheless believes that the Axis VoiceBox S and VoiceBox B exceed his mandate of pure excellence in music reproduction. Brad Serhan In 1984 Brad Serhan founded Orpheus Loudspeakers a company that, based on high performance yet affordable products, grew to become one of the leading speaker manufacturers in Australia. After selling Orpheus Loudspeakers, Serhan has been in high demand as a consulting and freelance designer to a number of high profile Australian manufacturers and has been responsible for several highly successful designs – both critically and commercially. Now, Serhan brings his comprehensive experience and highly-tuned engineering skills to Axis Loudspeakers. Len Wallis Audio AXIS VOICEBOX LOUDSPEAKER REBORN While working in retail it is not often that we get the opportunity to see how the other half of the industry works, the half responsible for actually creating the products that we then take to market. We have been afforded this opportunity recently as we watched the re-birth of the Axis VoiceBox loudspeakers. While it is not a household name Axis Loudspeakers have been around since 1992, and has always been the brainchild of designer John Reilly. The brand achieved considerable critical success during the ’90’s, receiving numerous ‘Best Buy’ awards and being named as ‘Manufacturer of the Year’. The product was distributed throughout China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand and Australia. Due to an economic downturn in Asia during the late ‘90’s production of the range was halted in 1997. In recent years John decided that the time was right to re-launch Axis – but on a more ambitious scale. This time John’s goal was to produce a world product – something that has not been successfully done by an Australian company since Duntech – again late last century. To this end he has been working with another well-known Australian speaker designer (and former competitor) Brad Serhan. Brad has had a long and illustrious career spanning thirty years designing speakers in Australia. John (who has Australian/Chinese heritage – and who shares his time between the two countries) is manufacturing the product in China. This is one of a growing number of products that is alerting the world to the fact that when done right Chinese factories have the capability to produce product to the very highest of standards – the finish quality on the Axis VoiceBox is second to none! We have been very fortunate to be able to track the progress of this project – Brad and John have, from time to time, used our facilities to listen to and tweak their new product. It is fascinating to hear the effects that the smallest of changes to cross-over or cabinet design can make to the final result. At times we thought they had absolutely nailed the design, only to have them return with an improved version. The Axis VoiceBox may not appeal to everyone. It is a small speaker, and as such is not designed to play at extreme volume levels or with thunderous bass. However it is a design that appeals to me. I have always been a fan of good quality bookshelf speakers, reaching back as far as the legendary Rogers LS35A and the Epos ES14. If your interest extends to a speaker with exquisite detail, impeccable tonal characteristics and spooky imaging this may be the product that you are looking for. I find this to be a very engaging speaker, and in many ways reminiscent of another favourite Australia high-end bookshelf speaker, the Duntech DSM15 – which I understand Brad also had a hand in designing. The Axis VoiceBox will sell in Australia for $2,295/pair. This represents excellent value, and I understand will be below the asking price on overseas markets. I did come across a very complementary review of the earlier version of this speaker where they were selling for $2,500 the pair. John’s goal of a global speaker may be bearing fruit. While the product is only just now coming to market they have already secured a high profile distributor in the US – Colleen Cardas Imports - Len Wallis, August 2014. http://6moons.com/audioreviews2/axis/1.html Pictures:
