A rare chance to experience the magic of Jim Salk's much renowned speakers. More so after Jim sadly decided to close shop last year as he retired., , Salk Sound is one of those brands you've either come across or not. In my case I was looking for the VERY best floorstanders I could afford for under £5k and after much research landed on Salk Sound. Salk was reccomended to me by pals in the hobby and the more I read the more I liked. He has an almost cultlike following over on Audio Circle., , I bought these direct, custom made, from Jim Salk in 2016 and paid nearly £5k once Fedex from Michigan to UK and import duties was factored in. Unfortunately they have a few scratches from when we moved house but these are only noticeable on the stands and the speakers themselves look great. Marks shown clearly on the photos., , I truly believe these were one of the true bargains in this hobby for delivering the performance of a much more expensive speaker at a very reasonable price, , I don't have the original boxes so the buyer must collect them from me in Central London. Factoring that and the marks into account I'm looking for only £2000 and I'll even throw in the Iso Acoustic Gaia III isolation feet that cost another £370 and make a wonderful improvement - especially on hard floors like wood., , Smoky Silver Maple finish, , RAAL RIBBON, This tweeter does an amazing disappearing act. It is almost as if there is no tweeter there at all...just a crystal clear window into the sound. This helps create the illusion that the performers are actually in the space with you., , MAGNESIUM CONES, The Seas W15 woofers in this design feature stiff, low-mass magnesium cones. Thus, they are able to re-create subtle detail in the midrange that other drivers simply can't reproduce. Many customers remark on hearing detail in familiar recordings that they never heard before., , Search the audiocircle forum website for Salk Sound and you'll see the kind of enthusiasm Salk Sound speakers have over in the US., , These are an absolute steal and will make many systems far better. But unfortunately shipping looks too much of an ordeal to sort out so I'll do them at a great price as long as the buyer can collect from me in central London, UK.
