A very rare opportunity to acquire a super rare pair of high end loudspeakers.

 

These magnificent beasts bring music to life with their combination of 

 

a high quality 18 inch woofer mated to an 8 inch midrange complimented with not one but four six inch horn loaded ribbon high frequency drivers per side.The build and finish is of reference studio quality.

 

The only other pair I have seen for sale were on ebay USA and were listed at $4999.

 

 

My experience with audio is high end, vintage original Klipsch Hersesy, LaScala, Altec lansing A406, multi stacked esl57, Avalon acoustics et-cetera – speakers are in a super league in terms of capability but do need some setting up, – to match your room and system. Setup properly, as they are not at present due to most of the matching gear being sold, they remind me of the Urei monitors with A604 and additional 15 inch JBL’s used for monitoring  much of the legendary 60/70/80’s music when the famous masters were recorded, however, they are more open, even less distortion, they basically sound live and musical.

 

 

These were designed following complaints from musicians who were not satisfied with the quality of loudspeakers 

 

available at the time.

 

The following is what was said at the time of there creation.

 

 

 

Well after a year of development we have done it. The Pro1808R uses a combination of ribbon tweeters and high efficiency drivers that as one musician friend proclaimed “knocks the socks off of the competition”. There are four 6-inch ribbon tweeters behind the high frequency horn. Trebles are sweet and easy on the ears. The midrange is handled by a high efficiency 8-inch driver and the bass with a massive 18-inch woofer. The rated efficiency is 100 db and it will play loud!!!

 

 

The speakers are a combination of four cabinets,the ribbon sections are in  separate enclosures which sit on top of the Bass midrange cabinets.

 

 

Delivery or collection is preferred due to the size and weight of the speakers.
