I am selling my Markaudio 12p Pensils. They are made from 11-ply Baltic Birch plywood and stuffed with the wool AcoustaStuff and not the cheap polyfill. Backs are screwed on so you can adjust the amount of fill as needed. Wood is raw and ready for the finish of your choice. Speakers were broken in according to Mark's recommendations and have several hundred hours on them. They sound absolutely amazing and very relaxed compared to Fostex which can be aggressive at times. The bass is pretty impressive for such a small speaker as well.

I am selling them because I simply have too many speakers! I recently picked up a set of Crites-modified Cornwalls and I really don't listen to anything else anymore.

Asking $600 for the set and for logistics reasons, pick-up in Holland, MI

I'm sure you'd prefer to sell these complete, but if you are willing to separate the drivers, I'm interested in them. I'm halfway through a Super Pensil build right now, with oak ply cabinets and solid red oaks baffles. But I haven't bought the drivers yet.

Let me know how much you'd want for them if you decide you'd split them out. I live in WI, so it would be a short UPS ride across the lake.

Thanks,

Tom
