For Sale TAD and horns

Things you have for sale.
I am dismantling my large horns system to move to a different speaker after years of tweaking and joy. All in good to excellent conditions. I'll post pictures in the next hours and days. Shipping from Italy in sturdy and bomb proof packages. Open to reasonable offers. I will miss them all ... I know. I am already missing them. It took me years to find the TM1201, I will badly miss them. Very badly. I know I will regret. Someone please stop me from doing this.

TAD 4001 pair
original diaphragms, recharged in 2011, they were unused spares when I purchased them and just saw domestic use. Note one pin retaining the cold terminal of one driver is missing so I just plugged in a piece of solid core wire (terminal is complete with spring and cap and fully working ... to lazy to fit a better pin). No original boxes.
ASK 3200 euro + shipping from Italy


TAD 2001 pair
original diaphragms, recharged in 2011, bought them lightly used. No defects.
ASK 2400 euro + shipping from Italy


TAD TM1201 pair
bought new in box, these are super super super rare and perfect for horn loading and I used them with a large 1mt horn. Note one driver has a very minimal sign on the cone, nothing serious. Original boxes. LOVELY!!!
ASK 2800 1950 euro + shipping from Italy


TAD 1603 pair
in excellent shape. They were also spares when I purchased them so look perfect. No defects. No original boxes.
ASk 1400 euro + shipping from Italy


Autotech large tractrix 100Hz horn glossy white
wood flange, mouth is 100cm, throat good for >10" drivers, flange is drilled for TAD TM1201 but there is plenty of room for a larger drilling, gelcoat is perfect, you need to drill for your installation and plaster the existing holes and some fresh paint would make them really shine. overall in great conditions
1200 1000 euro + shipping from Italy (they were kind of 800each at that time)

Autotech IWATA 300 glossy white pair
black metal flange for 2" drivers, no defect/scratches maybe you could consider to repaint the external but they actually look good as they are
900 600 euro + shipping from Italy


Autotech small tractrix 1kHz glossy black
metal flange for 1" driver, do defects
200 100 euro + shipping from Italy

A very convenient supporting system for 2" drivers and horns powder coated in grey. Made of steel tubes and curved steel plate all professionally welded and machined. You can bolt it on a larger woofer box, two sets of tubes for different heights over the speaker box. Includes also supports for (driver) tweeters. Lower leg and base not included (see the very last pic), just the tubes and driver supports
150 euro + shipping from Italy (it costed me 400 or maybe even more)


Happy to entertain questions and talks if any

Nice stuff! Are you moved to different horns ?

Hey Vil, no actually I am moving to dual concentric. I know I'll miss all of them TADs but we are relocating shortly so I need to reduce the footprint of my system.

1603 sold. All the drivers are on ebay.
I will reduce prices for horns, look like they are too high.
