minermark Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Certainly cheaper than Blairs deal, However I would have dropped the coin for blairs in a heart beat, I thought it was a screaming deal, I looked up the PM4A drivers and they were like 1600 euro each add the upgrade aer cones, the phase plugs, the paint, and your talking serious cabbage to replace those horns, I think you buddy is going to be in audio heaven when he hears those, I would also bet you will be impressed with those drivers, Now at new price I would deffinately agree that the diminishing returns law comes into play but that's a preference thing at best As far as buying DHAR's I am literally BROKE, I am mainly probing him for the info that most would expect. In an effort to keep his sale thread current. I have dealt with DHAR a few times over the years and we have both been typically happy And there is Joessportster helping me spend money again on yet another killer deal.......thank you Joe.

joessportster Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I am currently living vicariously through you I have an idea, you can drive out and deliver Justins cornscalas, then you have the opportunity to buy twice as much, take the southern route thru Texas, to Georgia, then up thru the Carolina's into Virginia, where you can pick up the Horns, and I will grab the cornscala's, Then you can take the northern route home Va. thru Ohio, and to Indiana, Next is Chicago then a little dodge south into Colorado. Then it's open all the way to California Hey I just figured out how to spend a bunch of your money 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just rent a uhaul and do a road trip around the USA picking up horns! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joessportster Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Oh hell you already have a pickup, I just figured out how you can save enough to fund the trip http://www.centurycaps.com/t-class Buy the truck cap throw some old carpet on the floor and you have enough room for bankruptcy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joessportster Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 If you are set on flying out, you could buy 2 extra seats and set 1 cornscala in each seat, I will pick you up at the airport 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minermark Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Need to mellow out the neighbors, got some Enya going @12 watts. Now joe, you really want those corns eh? they are on the CL also, iv come across them at least 5 times today already. Id be more than happy to detour drive through LA problem is my Adventure in "Road collecting Audio" does not begin till I get back there. I want to start on the east coast and zigzag wherever the CL/forum takes me. that is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) There has got to be a better way. Estimated shipping on a new pair to the states is $900 Australian. http://www.azurahorn.com/azurahorn_ordering.html So somebody would ship those across the states for less than 1/2 that I suspect.

beeker Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) The FW int. airport is 2 miles from my house...I would consider uhaul or ryder van...actually fairly cheap... EDIT: VA is about 7 hours from here up to 12 depending what route traffic.. Interstate 30 goes right through here like butter..

JL Sargent Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Gas here is $3.59 a gallon. How much around you Beeker. Just wondering what your total real cost would be to get these speakers by flying/driving? I understand the adventure of it and all. Been there done that. Certainly we all can/have justified what we want. Just making some "buzz kill" suggestions LOL. Might want to sit down, add it all up, and then decide what you want to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
