You didn’t actually get the best price there :) Found them cheaper!

Do you know, this is a significant bargain! Even if you DIY those speakers, you couldn’t perhaps get anything as well finished. The cabinet work itself is worth that money, and if the speaker sound as half as good as they look, I think I could happily live with a pair. Get some monster class D amps going into them, I bet they'd sound decent!

I’m very tempted myself! These cost a lot less than a set of LS3/5A in this country new! Shows how much of a joke of a price that is as well!

This is one of those 'I don't where to post it and it's not worth starting a new thread' posts.

It seems Bartletts in London has gone, and Hifi Confidential reports 'Closing Down'. Any others going kaput?

Sevenoaks are selling a pair of ex-demo KEF LS60 Wireless in Grey, for £3499.00.
I enquired about them and was told that they are unmarked and carry the full 2 year KEF warranty. The only snag is that they are collection only from the Nottingham branch.

As I don't think it's been mentioned in this thread, note that Kef are selling brand new pairs for £4500 right now.

It's a power conditioner designed specifically for high current devices like amplifiers, subwoofers and active speakers. I had the IsoTek GII Titan power conditioner in my system for many years and later it's replacement the IsoTek EVO3 Titan (which I still use to power my hi-fi power amp and home cinema receiver). The EVO3 Titan is one of the most effective conditioners I've ever heard, cleaning up sound quality to a very high degree without restricting dynamics or robbing the music of soul and vitality. Musical transients in particular, sound absolutely fantastic through the Titan. Reading reviews online, it seems the V5 is better still.

What's a musical transient? Can I buy one to try or do they come in packs?
