Good luck with the sale of your Martens. As good as the askin price is for a speaker like that, I'd be killed stone dead if I went for them.

Re: Marten Design Bird Speakers for sale.
Very tempting....if only i had not wrecked my bank balance after visiting the Scalford Show this year.
I jumped on the tubes and electrostatics wagon on my return.
Best of luck with the sale.
