The problem is that I don't have an amp for them and that would certainly make them quite a bit more expensive.
The Quads have been sitting unused for quite a while. I keep having problems with them. The balanced and unbalanced connections seems to be loose on one of the speakers. This was after I already had Colin fix the poor connection to the tweeter when he was here a year ago. After having the problems and hum I have had with these, I would certainly not buy any more Quad stuffs.
I am using Airmotiv 4s on the desktop right now which are actually pretty good.
