Extra Info: The Beethoven Baby Grand is the version preceding the current Symphony Edition, and the speakers were purchased four years ago from Steve Bennett HiFi (I’m the original owner and a copy of the receipt can be provided). These speakers have been very well cared for. They have a slightly laid-back but nicely detailed non-fatiguing sound that suits most types of music. They perform well with tube or solid state amps. As one of the respondents to my original post wrote “…beautiful speakers that do a whole lot exceptionally well.” There are 11 months left on the warranty, and it is transferable to a new owner (as per the distributor, Audio Active). I have the original boxes with all of the packing material. Each speaker comes with the manual, aluminium outriggers, spikes, discs for floor protection, Allen wrench, and a “white glove”. Pick up preferred.
