FREE - SB26ADC-C000-4 + SB17NAC35-8 Floorstanding Loudspeaker - pick up only Newcastle NSW AU

GONE

I need to find a home for these speakers using highly regarded SB Acoustics Aluminium drivers SB26ADC-C000-4 and SB17NAC35-8. I'll be sorry to see them go as I really enjoy their sound and presentation which is a bit forward of neutral but I can't keep them. Pick up only Newcastle NSW AU. If you want to give me a few dollars for them, that's fine but is not a condition.

Some info:
18 litres, F3=38Hz
Cabinet with angled bottom divider and P2P brace with removeable back panel
Finished in white oak timber veneer
AR Series crossover uses Mundorf M-Cap capacitors and Jantzen inductors with crossover around 2300Hz
SPL 84dB and I used them with a Arcam FMJ-A19 (50W) and a 3886DR (32W) in a 4.2m x 5.7m room
A 8 ohm speaker with a minimum impedance of 6.26 ohm with a flat impedance plot within a few ohm
Designed to have a space of 250mm - 300mm behind the speaker from the back wall (only small amount of BSC)
The grille looks fine but a bit messy at the back as the fabric is stapled on but you don't see that

Ignore the black strip in some pics as it's a result of the camera flash.

I'm very interested if this is still available -- I'd been eyeing a build with the same drivers. The build looks beautiful already though, and I'm curious to hear a series design. I'd be happy to make a donation for them, but wouldn't be able to head up to Newcastle til April 9. Possibly interested in some of your woodwork kit as well from your other FS post.

I can't seem to PM you with the updated forum (maybe from my lack of posts). If you can PM me, hopefully we could organise there.
 
yobs

Apparently it's not PM now but conversations which can be accessed from the user avatar. I've started a conversation which I've said I'll hold the speakers for you in April.

To others..... thanks for your kind words on the build. I've found it difficult to even give away DIY speakers and electronics and only seems valuable to the builder which is a shame as there is some nice DIY stuff around that gets ignored.
