NHT XdS monitors and stands, passive xover

Checking to see if there's any interest here in my NHT (Now Hear This) XdS monitors with matching stands in excellent condition. I assembled some passive outboard crossovers based on John Krutke's (Zaph Audio) network that he developed for them. These monitors were part of a flagship fully active integrated system (with subwoofer) that retailed for $6,000 originally and was awarded a Stereophile Class A rating back in the mid 2000's, check the review online. My outboard crossovers are not pretty but they do the job and sound good (Clarity Caps, 16 gauge inductors, Lynk resistors). Midrange is particularly good with the SEAS Excel W15 magnesium drivers ($242 EACH at Madisound!). Just a different phase plug and shielded motor on these. You'll likely want to pair a sub with them, bass rolls off early with 5" drivers in a sealed cab. Shipping probably expensive, they are not puny lightweights by any means. EACH speaker and stand weighs ~45 pounds. CONUS only please. Asking $400 plus actual shipping cost from 64024. Excellent speakers, just trying to fund some other projects.. I do have the original boxes somewhere in my basement.
