Van L speakers
« on: November 13, 2014, 12:22:27 PM »
Anyone out there looking for a really nice speaker?  Here it is, the Van L speakerworks (unknown model).  A beautiful floor standing, 3 way speaker with amazing sound field, clarity and depth.  Amongst my favorite speakers for moderate listening levels, their bass just doesn't compete with Snells nor Legacys (not much does).  These speakers come with a catch, Tom's NO TRADE clause!  These speakers are impossible to find for sale and they are not to leave the area.  So with that being said you are basically renting these speakers, knowing that eventually they go back to Tom.  The price is $350, exactly what I paid.  They are worth owning and you wont be disappointed.  The only reason I am selling is that they fell to fourth in my speaker line up and I only have two running systems at the moment.  Thanks for looking and pm me if interested.  Nick

I will try to get pictures up later.
