Benton, I'm glad you're enjoying them! I wish I could've heard the "Lobby Scene" from The Matrix thru them one time! Let them break-in a bit and then see if some of the Heritage guys up there can help solve your hiss problems. I'm sure that you'll have many years of pleasure from them! Mike

Sunfire Cinema Grand! Not sure of current pricing-- might check out www.sunfire.com -- but I've never been disappointed with Carver's new stuff!

The LaScalas are gone!! Off to the land of Beer and Cheese (Wisconsin for all you non midwesterners.) Thanks to all who expressed interest and support! For now, I still have my Quintets... and I'm sure I'll get something a little bit larger once we all get moved into the new house. Thanks again, folks. Old Married Guy-- formerly the Partaymon!

My vote for a "For Sale" forum as well!!

XMAN: If the deal falls through, I'll post them back up-- but right now it looks pretty good. I'll let everybody know the outcome. Mike

Hey guys! Thanks for all the interest and support. I've tried to reply to all of the e-mails and PMs-- my job keeps me on the road and makes it difficult to check my computer msg.s every day. I think the LaScalas have found a home! One of the board members I have been talking to has said that he'd like to take them home on Friday. I respect everyone's privacy, so I won't mention who it is-- but he might very well post about it himself! (Hard to keep that kind of happy news to yourself!) I'll let everyone know the outcome this weekend. Mike.

Thanks for the support, Bill. And NO, Tankhokie (sp?).... these are NOT out of a white van. (Yes, I'm familiar with the scam.) Sadly, they were purchased with grand ambition, but 'tis not to be. Somebody needs to give them a good home!

Just bumping this back to the top. $5,500 for ALL FIVE! C'mon, fellas; I'd rather sell them to someone on the board than put them on EBAY! I'll be out of town for a few days, but any questions PM me and I'll get back to you. Mike

I have a set of five factory-sealed LaScalas in Black Lacquer for sale in Indiana. For more info, look for the same-titled post under the General Questions section. Thanks, folks!

Folks, it's a sad day for me. My LaScalas have to go... and I never even unpacked them from their shipping crates! In climate-controled storage for the past 10 months have been 5 Black Lacquer LaScalas. These were originally intended for a custom HT system, but it never came to pass. Now they have to go. I wanted to list them here, before putting them on EBAY. (At least here, everyone knows what they are, what they're capable of, and has an idea of what they're worth.) New MSRP is $2,000 per speaker, and as I said, I've never opened the crates. While they are technically not new, they are certainly as mint as you could possibly hope for! I'm hoping for $7,000 for the set of 5, but I'll consider a reasonable offer of less. I would like to sell them as a set, but I will consider splitting them up, if necessary. They are located in Terre Haute, IN. If you are located reasonably close, I might consider delivering them. (It would take me at least two trips, unless I rent a van or box truck.) The Holidays are coming up; if you've ever wanted an awesome Heritage HT setup at a great price, here's your chance! You folks get first crack at 'em-- if there isn't any interest here, they'll have to go on EBAY by the weekend. Send me a Private Message if interested.

Bill H: You can see 'em anytime! As I stated earlier, I've never opened the crates. Currently, they're in storage in a friend's garage-- much better for them than out in my barn!) My job keeps my on the road quite a bit, but I'm usually home on Sundays. PM or e-mail me and we'll get together. E-mail is: partaymon@yahoo.com

BUMP!! Back up to the top! C'mon guys-- is $7,500 too much? Should I split 'em into pairs? Should I advertise them as a "stacked system" with one speaker in reserve? I need some input here! Remember, I bought these six months BEFORE I got married! Now the old lady says they gotta go... and in the interest of marital bliss, I told her I'd see about selling them. (Remind me to change my moniker from "Partaymon" to "Old Married Guy!"

The speakers are in Terre Haute, IN. Approx. 1 hour from Indy, 3 hours from Louisville, Ky., 3 1/2 hours from St. Louis, and 3 1/2 hours from Chicago. Right in the heart of corn country!

Hey All!! I haven't been around for awhile... too busy adjusting to getting married, moving, and changing jobs all at once! Anyway, folks, I've got a question: I have a set of five matching LaScalas. They were intended for use in a 5.1 system in a large Great Room. However, by the time I took delivery of them, both my job and my housing plans changed-- along with my marital status-- so I put them in storage for the past year. Here's the kicker-- they're BRAND NEW! (I never uncrated them after delivery-- the cartons are still sealed!) Four of the five have sequential serial #s; all are finished in high gloss Piano Black Lacquer, without grill cloth. Anyway, having sold my previous house, and then changed plans as far as building the new one, I now have absolutely no place to put them! I know that new Retail is apprx. $2k each. I also know that I had to wait six months for delivery of mine. However, the chance to sell all five as a set would be a highly motivating factor on my part! So what d'ya think, folks? Would $7,500 be unreasonable?
