POV Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) Never thought that I would sell my beloved Aslans, but things change and I need to change with them! Have moved further and further away from 2 channel in the last year, and now tend to not really listen to 2 channel at all. Therefore I am considering selling to help fund a fully matched multichannel system that is more in line with my listening habbits. Item: Aslan Acoustics F6 Floorstandsers (customised) and CW-12 Location: Perth (Southern Suburb) Price: $2750 for the package, including approx $500 worth Whatmough WC-BW420 Bi-Wire Speaker Cable (2 x 4m lengths with Whatmough locking plugs) Item Condition: Excellent (One of the F6 speakers has some very minor cosmetic damage thanks to TNT poor handling. This has been repaired and is barely noticeable) Reason for selling: Change of direction (more into multichannel) Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: The F6 floorstanders were customised by Andrew for me to include crushed garnet filled base, Visaton L-Pad (variable tweeter attenuator), bi-wire speaker terminals, and tweeter diffuser pads. The speakers and the sub are a perfect match as they came from the same veneer sheets. The sub is a beauty, and disapears very nicely into the soundstage when set-up well. Very tight clean bass right down to about 25hz in room.. It's an EOI at the moment as I'm not prepared to give them away. If someone is interested then sling me a PM and we can have a chat. Postage probablly not an option due to combined weight being well in excess of 100kgs!. Pictures: Edited September 13, 2012 by Drew

POV Posted September 13, 2012 Author Posted September 13, 2012 Okay...these are officially for sale now. Here is some info from Andrew about the F6 Floorstanders: "The F6 floorstand design utilises twin 6.5" doped paper cone mid/bass units with 30mm voice coils and massive 100mm x 25mm magnet structures. A Kapton voice coil ensure smooth handling of transients with good heat shedding capability. The rubber surround allows for cone excursion of 4mm to deliver exceptional bass in a vented enclosure. Each mid/woofer is fitted with dual 8 ohm voice coils rated at 60 watts rms each is matched to Vifa's famous XT25 dual concentric Ring Radiator for high frequency extension beyond 30KHz. Crossover components (as in all Aslan designs), incorporate Mundorf capacitors, coils and resistors in the signal path areas of the circuit ensuring precise imaging and soundstage. The F6 is rated at a staggering 160 watts rms, and is capable of over 100dB spl's with a frequency range from 40Hz to 30KHz and presents a nominal impedance of 8 ohms to the amplifier making it suitable for all types of systems, be it Stereo or Home Theatre use. The speakers measure 900mm (h) x 230mm (w) x 250mm (d)." And here is some people's thoughts on the C6 (standmount version of F6) and CW-12 combo: http://www.dtvforum.info/index.php?showtopic=52150&st=25#entry733896
POV Posted September 15, 2012 Author Posted September 15, 2012 Well my brother in law tried to convince me not to sell today by bringing over his MF analogue 2 ch gear. It might have worked! Still for sale though and I do appreciate the interest.
POV Posted September 26, 2012 Author Posted September 26, 2012 Well there has been some interest, and thanks for those that have communicated. These are still for sale, so will have 1 and only price drop. $2500 for the lot. A steal at that price if you ask me! Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
