buddyev Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) Item Condition: Cosmetically good. Working as they should. Shipping Options: Pickup available and you can audition. Suburb or Town: Richmond State: VIC Payment Method: EFT, cash Reason for selling: Upgraded Further information: A pair of classic Proac standmounts. These are superb small speakers which I'm selling because owning 3 pairs of Proacs is excessive and recently I’ve scored a pair of 1SC. They don’t need loads of power but they scale really well with quality amplification and aren't embarrassed by fancier partnering equipment. They are particularly well suited to tubes - I’ve had them on a Weston Topaz and they were wonderful. On my Magtech they sang. They are in good cosmetic condition. There are a few scratches in the veneer on side on side of one speaker, which you can see from the photos. There are no structural problems or damage. You probably know their reputation - it’s very well deserved - but there are plenty of reviews on the net. https://www.stereophile.com/content/proac-response-1s-loudspeaker Buyer must audition to confirm condition on pick up.

Spukee Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 There really is something special about these speakers. They sound good with most genres due to that magical midrange. I lusted after one after I heard a pair at andrei's. When I finally got mine, it remained my main pair for 3 years. Good luck with the sale, you shouldn't need it :-). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom V Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 daym I had a clone 1s and it was awesome. I sold them just last week I was hoping to test it with the real one but I waited for a while with no luck. The clone I have is very musical so I assume this will even be more special than the clone. This should be gone quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
