Newform R30 ribbons, crossovers, and midbass driver

cowanrg · 14th December 2007, 07:34 PM

i had a pair of newform research speakers and then sold them. when i shipped them out, DHL busted up the cabinets. the drivers are fine, with just some minor scratching and such. ill look and see but i think one or two of the endcaps are gone and the plastic on the face of the ribbon might be cracked. but, nothing affects operation. they work just fine. i'm sure you could get replacements for these from newform for cheap.

the midbass drivers are just fine, they didn't get damaged at all. the crossovers are also perfect. the really only thing that got damaged were the cabinets.

im offering both ribbons, both midbass drivers and crossovers for $350 plus shipping. the ribbon drivers alone sell for $835 from newform, and the kit (crossovers, midbass drivers, and ribbons) sell for about $1300.

shipping should be pretty cheap in the US, and the ribbons and drivers will be MUCH easier to ship than the whole speaker. let me know if you are interested. im also a bit flexible on the price as well.

no one? well at least give me an idea of how much they WOULD be worth.

They're likely worth a bit more than most people are willing to pay. I'd buy them, but I've got quite enough stuff on my plate as it is, and I'm saving up for some Revelator midbass drivers.

eh, i have a couple of bites. we'll see.

i wanted to use them for a project at one time, but i really don't have enough rooms for all the speakers.

ill be posting pics here later today though.
