Hey Watts…free bump
I have a pair of these too…considered selling them because I’d really like to try a pair of PM6A.
I hope you get some bites soon.

What really amazes me is.....
What constitutes and / or justifies (besides inflation) the price of speakers these days?
Back when I was younger, an excellent speaker system sold for maybe $79.95, or $129.50.
A driver, like a 12 inch woofer cost maybe $39.95.
For instance, today, a pair of complete speaker systems, like those Focal (France) tower systems, usually retail for well over a thousand bucks.
.....for a particle board box, and some drivers and a few crossover parts....!
Raw speakers - like a 12 inch woofer, going for $479....!
Is anything made of Gold, or precious metals in them?
Now mind you, I'm no dope, I've been in the audio business for decades.
But speakers these days are basically made from the same materials as a speaker from 1980ish.
Same goes for electronics-amps, etc.
Nothing against wattsman mind you....he's free to charge what he thinks is reasonable.
But I sure as hell refuse to pay some in-my-opinion extremely large price for a speaker.

Considering they cost $1395 a pair here in the USA, this is a very fair price for exceptional full range 8" drivers. There are a number of diy plans for different cabinets available from either Lowther or here in the full range thread.
I really like my Lowthers, I use 5 - 10w amplifiers to drive them. One of the few full range drivers capable of acceptable levels of bass.
