kev313 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Spring cleaning time! As I mentioned in another thread, I am in the process of moving and clearing the unused gear clutter. I have decided that two full systems is enough for me. I think it might be bad for my mental health to have unused gear lying about. It has started to justify a horders or collectors mentality, the pursuit of which seems to bring no real pleasure and certainly is bad for my finances. Not the best lead in for a sale, but what are you gonna do? I have a pair of MC-30s that are basically mint. Totally unscathed. Perfect original lettering (I will say 99.9% because I am sure there is something I missed but, really, there may not be!) and...the big kicker for those of you who ARE collectors......consecutively numbered. That's right. A NOS matched pair in tube speak. With original owners manual to boot. Price is $2200.00. I am offering them up to Chicago forum members first for local pick-up and inspection. Anyone interested can email me thorugh the forum. I just want to be clear that first priortiy will be given for local pick-up. Anyone who picks 'em up at the above price will get the special "forum pick-up bonus" - a pair of walnut Model 700s. OK, the cabs have seen better days, but the components are just fine. I think that is a steal, but, really, it is just a lot easier for me to offer for pick-up. I am a bit out of boxes at the current time! I just double boxed a pair of Moondogs for a fellow forum member and, after surveying the packing material, realize I really have nothing left to do another safe packing job on 4 large heavy items. I'll try to get some pics up today or tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meagain Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Good morning. What are 700's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 The model H-700 & H-1000 are the precessors to the Heresy. Nice speakers. Man O' Man I would love to have those 30's! The ones I had briefly were nice but these are top of the line sounding from the description. Want to trade for some '78 WO Belle Klipsch.

ben. Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Consecutive Mc30 are very rare, as I understand it. Even ordered as a factory pair, they were usually not consecutive. Also, many were sold singly. Besides, I think I remember Kev saying something about a NOS matched quad of WE 350B that he was going to give to the buyer... hmmm - maybe not...

meagain Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Are they spoken for yet? My hubby's on a plane right now. However, if you had a pair of Klipschorns - I wouldn't need him to make the decision. I've been proxied! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z4! Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 If you snag these meagain, I would be very suprised if you didn't quit looking for amplification; unless of course you really want a 300 wpc amp also. These ain't no receiver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the really rare ones. You know, they aren't engraved bases, but they have "Western Electric" written in marker on the envelope.

Soundthought Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Ohhhh brother. If I had the extra scratch, i'd be all over this deal. Wow. I can say, without a doubt, that Kevin really takes care of his gear. Whomever receives this bounty, will not be disappointed. Regards, John.

meagain Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I can say, without a doubt, that Kevin really takes care of his gear. I've gleaned this. Kevin - I'm thinking you have someone in the 'que for this already? I talked to hubby. You have both email & PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSport Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 ...thanks, I hope someone got them cuz I have spent half the day trying to find out how I can afford these... Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meagain Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Silversport - It's painful either way. Which is worse - not having the cash handy to buy? Or having the cash but losing the deal to someone else? Pain is pain. I want to hear 'tube magic'. Fingers crossed.... tap tap tap & all that good stuff. Maybe a benedryl would be good for me?

Radiohead Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I can't quite figure out how to PM on this board but would like to ask you a few questions regarding the amps. Would you please email me at the following address so that I may reply back: ryan606@hotmail.com Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverSport Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 meagain, I agree...my problem is I could free up the cash for this...it would take some movin' 'round but...do I NEED ANOTHER piece of electronic gear??? (wrong place to ask this question, I know!) and what do I do with some of the gear I have now...plus I would have to finally make the leap off the cliff to tubes...YIIIIIKES!!! Please someone buy this and put me outta my misery...[] Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
