Reason for selling: Not needed Payment Method: Pickup - Cash Extra Info: Whatmough Audio Ondine speakers (pair). These were Whatmough's reference speakers back in the day, worth a lot of money.

MuBh Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 These were made with immense love by the late Colin himself. He will be greatly missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer sir sanders zingmore Posted July 16, 2018 Volunteer Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) They look amazing. I’m a big fan of Colin, he made superb speakers. Would love to hear these - especially with those MBL amps (I’m not in the mkt sadly ) Edited July 16, 2018 by Sir Sanders Zingmore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesR Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Yeah, not much available online. I might call them tomorrow to ask. The woofer looks like a Dynaudio driver to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
