SteveAudioFan Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) Hey guys! I recently bought some Cornwall III speakers. I am selling them and they are only one week old, for $1600, for the pair. Yes, the pair. Here is why. When they arrived, one had some shipping damage to two corners, front right and back right on one speaker. Nothing else, that is all. Everything else is perfect, including the sound. Also, I realized they are too large for my room. As good as they sound in here (running tubes) they are just massive for my small room. So I will be ordering Forte III, as they are more suited to my room size. In any case, someone can get a great deal on these at $1600 for a pair. I have boxes and paperwork. Only a week old. I was able to get a partial refund so selling them for just under what I paid for them. See images for the damage. They really do sound incredible but with some music, when turned up, the bass can get to be a little too much. If I had a larger room, they would be staying. LOCAL PICKUP only though for anyone in Phoenix AZ. I also have a pair of Walnut Heresy III with 70th Anniversary grilles. $950 for the pair.

If I had a pair of one week old cornwalls for sale, they would NOT be damaged cornwalls. Someone would have already sent me a new pair and the transport company would now own the pair with the dinged corners. Shakey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merely speculation on my part. It could have come from the seller, not shipper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had some damaged veneer twice and got to keep both times. But probably not worth the trouble for them to pick up. But it helped veneer my K-Horns...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
