    Hey All,

    This is the square/rectangle cabinet version in rosewood. I’m the original owner. They’re mint and have only been used in my non-smoking home. Will ship in the original boxes.

    I’m selling them only because I have several pricier pairs that get more use. These are fantastic for the price.

    I have them listed on USAM for $1,600 plus shipping. For folks here, I’d take $1,500 and cover the CONUS shipping and PayPal fees myself.

    Please PM me with any questions.

    Dude that's a gorgeous set of speakers. Almost almost makes me consider making a trip down to the US for a border pickup... except I still have no idea how I'm going to be setting up sound for my living room yet.

    Pictures don't do these justice. I have a set (curved satin Rosewood) and the Ayre/Phil combination makes me stay up far too late listening to music.

    My only "complaint" is that they are somewhat bigger than I expected so now I want the towers because they'll be more stable on the floor :-D

    For whomever buys this, the Skylan stands are great. You can mass load them with 23 pounds of rice per stand to make for very stable stand.

    Is the curved vs square cabinets a timeline/revision thing or just aesthetics?

    Just aesthetics afaik. They are supposed to sound the same.

    The guy managing sales/manufacturing for the Phils is willing to entertain custom orders for various aspects of the line as long as one is willing to pay the premium and make a deposit.

    Mine are curved because that's what was available when I needed new speakers ASAP when my other ones failed.

    These are (at least for now) still available. Yes, as far as I know the cabinets are just aesthetic. The drivers are the same.

    I too find Ayre electronics to synergize exceedingly well with the Raal ribbons. Lots of detail but never zippy, and oh my the textures...!

    Sorry for the OT, Josh, but it's a free bump

    GLWS - someone's goona love these!

    Still available. If anyone wants these, take another $100 off my asking price.

    I was trying to talk myself into it, but then my other half disapproved of the colour... :(
