Usher CP 8571 MK2 speakers ****SOLD*****

Post by DaveF »

Due to an upgrade, I'm putting my Usher CP 8571 MK2 speakers up for sale. They are in mint condition with a beautiful walnut finish with piano gloss front baffles. These are quite heavy speakers so any buyer will have to pick them up, I wont be able to ship them. I dont have the original boxes but I do have all the foam inserts which fit nicely around the speaker. The speakers are actually a bit easier to move around when out of the boxes anyway, still difficult mind.

These have the beryllium tweeter and not the newer diamond tweeter.

Reviews can be found here:
http://www.usheraudiousa.com/files/revi ... -sound.pdf
There are other reviews of this speaker online.

I'm looking for 3500Euro for these which is just under half of what I paid for them.

Some pics here:

Demos of course can be arranged. If you want to bring your own amps along please do so. They do like power so good solid state or high power valve amp are recommended.

Nothing bought yet Dermot. I need to sell the Ushers first.

I'm dropping the price of these speakers to 2995 Euro which is a real bargin! I'll also consider payment in 1K installments over a couple of months subject to certain conditions. These are a terrific sounding speaker and the only reason I'm selling is that they are not quite the perfect match for the Airtight ATM2 that I bought recently.
As mentioned in the first post, the buyer will have to arrange transport as these are very large and heavy speakers. I have the foam inserts for protection during transport but not the boxes.
