Looking - Monitors & Sub

Looking preferably for a set of B&W dm601's, although any monitor with a Kevlar or carbon fibre cone will do(5.25" but the cabinets can be extended to 6" if necessary).
Condition of the cabinets is not a priority as the driver tweeter and crossover will be installed to a set of carbon fibre monitors that I have made (photo attached).
Also looking for a sub between 100 & 200 watts.
Any information or offers are appreciated.
The speaker was damaged while on display at an event.
The system is passive, also i work for a composites company, that is why i would like to have a kevlar/carbon cone, to keep with the composite speaker.

I have a pair of floorstanders, DM603 S3 that I'm not using. Make me an offer if interested.

the pic below is just grabbed from the 'net but mine are in perfect working order. (some cabinet damage.)
The woofer is a 6.5 inch unit though.

When Dean expressed interest I checked prices and they seem to go for €400/£400 so, taking into account the damage, I'm looking for €300. They've been in the corner of my son's room for years so they are a bit dusty.

See pic of damage below with black gaffing tape over it. The grill, when in place, hides much of it. As these were only ever in a cinema setup they were used with a REL sub so never were driven to really low frequencies. Mind you those B&W dome woofer do go low!
