WorkinClassAudio Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Item: Magneplanar 20.7 Loudspeakers Location: Melbourne Price: $13,500 $12,000 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Upgraded Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: Purchased from Bill McLean in August 2015. The price includes: 1 pair sand filled Mye Stands. (Value $1000) 4 Synergistic Research speaker jumpers (Value $400). Do not use the metal clips which come with the speakers, the sound is crap with those. 1 pair Synergistic Research Red fuses. (value $200). 1 pair Telos fuses. (Value $380? I can't remember the exact price but it is top of the line Telos fuse and equivalent of SR Black fuse.) The fuses are essential to get best performance. Many have heard these speakers at my GTGs. You will not find a better speaker package at anywhere near this price. I hereby tender my resignation from the Flat Panel Society. I will be joining the Horny Brigade. Too much is said about these speakers needing a large room to sound best. That could be said about many speakers. These speakers will sound good in medium to large rooms. Some rooms are better than others. A good medium room will be better than a large bad room. It's not about size, it's about set up.

BATMAQN Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I would like to buy these but I'm not confident my room is big enough damn it. Perfect placement of the rocket too if you know what I mean. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

needlerunner Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 It was hard to focus on the speakers. I was getting distracted for some reason. The lava lamp is strategically placed. GLWS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insanely over priced. At least the speakers are big enough to fashion him a casket. He will buried with them at that price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I discussed value with Bill McLean before putting up for sale. Those speakers are probably rubbish, which is why they have low resale values. Good products hold their value.

gonefishing999 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I have no idea what the value of the jbl's are. Peter I think the price of your panel's is a very good price ,please don't read between the lines. I think jbl's would be great because of the large space you have. I have been to your place with @djb and @ghost4man and felt that large speakers would be a better choice to fill the room . Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
