Hello.
This is going to be a crazy sale, but who knows if there will be somebody ovr there as crazy as I am.
I never though t I would put them for sale but, the fact is that I have more than 6 floorstanders and, although The Loudspeaker 2 are the very very best, they are the bigger ones as well and it’s impossioble to listen to any other speaker while they are in position… and I like changes and try different speakers.
In addition, funds will go to help the widow of one of my best friends who suddenly died last week.
That situation made me think about a lots of things and, although downsizing was something I always thought I have to do, now it’s time to do it deffinitively.
You can read the thread of my build here:
https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/354240-troels-gravesen-loudspeaker-2-build-close.html
My build has installed the Fostex FT96H (brand new) and I have replaced the original BMS 18” woofers with a pair of 18FH510 FaitalPro 18” woofers becuase they perform almost equal in the designed freq (Box tuned to 33Hz). With this 18” woofer you get a 98dB sensitivity system.
I have not played tyhe speakers more that 70 hours. Just almost break in process.
This is the fully passive version and crossover fits Jantzen audio components:
Z-Superior Caps for Tweeter and super tweeter, cross cap at the begining of midrange and Z-Standard in every other cap in the crossover. For bass section Elko Superior were choosen.
All the coils are oversized air core coils unless iron cored with discs at woofer low pass.
After lots of iterations, my crossover differs just a few from Troels one, and I can help you with the original crossover in the case you want to install the 18” BMS woofers. You just need to add some resistors and change one small coil. I’m pretty sure I have them stocked.
The box is built with birch wood (27mm) in all sides except bamboo front baffle (27mm).
All the wood was treated with two layers of Tung oil.
Price for this project is not cheap: 1500€ + Vat for the cheapest jantzen crossover and I have paid 1100€ for wood, 1900€ for drivers and more than 400€ in screws, damping material and small things.
I would let them go fot 4000€
Shipping is going to be a nightmare for me but it could be done into two pallets. Speakers would travel into custom made wood boxes (better to say tombs). I have checked price and it would be very close to 500€ within EU, so tyou have to add shipping to the price after checking because of transport situation.
