FS: Fostex F200a drivers only

TomekZ · 1st February 2010, 11:21 PM

For Sale, a pair of F200a drivers. Asking $425. New at Madisound $840. Alnico 8inch fullrange. In fine condition, light use. Some uneven blackness on the cones from dusting--they are ceramic coated paper.

Free shipping in the continental USA. These are heavy. The magnets are simply massive.

pics?

A picture of an actual driver. This is the one with the most discoloration. Not usually noticeable except in bright light with the intention of seeing such.

check pm.......will you ship these in original boxes, double boxed, etc.? Also, what's the white scrape/mark I see on the right of the one driver...just outside the surround?

Hi, the white mark that you refer to is merely dust that caught the light. I can take better pictures in brighter light. I think I only have one of the original boxes, but I've other form fitting boxes, and, of course double boxed with packing peanuts. I'll get clearer pictures to you promptly. Tom

Tom,

Just a note on packing. Packing peanuts don't do it. The speakers can slip around and smash their way out. I had a set of FE206eSR that were packed like this and just barely escaped damage.

It is important that the inner boxes cannot move with respect to the outer box and that the drivers in the box do not remove wrt their inner box. This link may be helpful.

Packing Speakers

I have received far too many drivers damaged in shipping and would hate to hear that these beauties did not arrive at their new home safe & sound.
