Swan Allure Speakers; Rare Audiophile Floorstanding Speakers; Swan's
These speakers are very, very hard to come by. They were highly regarded and well reviewed when they were released Circa 1995 with a retail price tag of $5995. They've been compared favorably to the Wilson Watt / Puppy (some say they sound even better). They mate well with a fairly high-powered tube amplifier, and when properly mated with components and cabling of equal quality they are some of the most transparent and revealing speakers you will find... extremely lifelike - especially with jazz, vocals, acoustic music. Absolutely breathtaking sound.
This set is coming from the 2nd owner in perfect working order. Cosmetically, they do have a few blemishes. There are some minor nicks and scrapes on the cabinets and damage to the bottom of each cabinet. The grill cloth could stand to be replaced as well (if you plan to use the grills - which I don't recommend). Also of note is that the original binding posts were replaced at some point in time. There are 2 small holes at the bottom, backside of each cabinet where the old connectors were. All in all, they are still very attractive speakers, and there is no visible cosmetic damage that couldn't be easily touched up. See photos for details.
Shipping will be by FedEx Freight. We will secure to a pallet and build a custom "crate" around the speakers. They can be delivered anywhere in the Continental USA for a flat rate of $199.
