Brentworth Sound Labs Type 1 Speakers with bass modules

[AllenLowe]

the dismantling of my studio begins (don't cry for me; this is part of my Maine escape plan);

a Pair of Brentworth Sound Lab Type 1 speakers with the little bass modules which, I am told, are essential.

I love these speakers; have mixed all my sessions and restored about 3000 recordings on them; if it sounds good on these babies it sounds good everywhere, I have found; of course, these are audiophile things, and audiophiles are notorious crazy (you know who you are); but I have the best ears of anyone I know (yes, that sounds vain, but I have really good ears; one of my view virtues) and I like 'em. A lot.

but here's the rub; these suckers are expensive (about $5500 new); I will sell them for $2500; they are also BIG and HEAVY - so - if you want 'em it might be best to come pick them up - I'm in Maine - and I cannot even imagine packing these babies for UPS, USPS, FEDEX, or anything else.

I figure it's a long shot; I may up trading them in; but would prefer cash -

email me at allenlowe5@gmail.com and here's a link about them:

Sensitivity 100 dB!!!

Holy shit!

[AllenLowe]

I take it that's a good thing?

by the way, I will add that I am also willing to donate this thing to a non-profit.

[Scott Dolan]

Yeah, it's pretty incredible. That's about as high an efficiency as you'll see in a loudspeaker. It means they are super easy to drive. Usually speakers average somewhere around 90dB. My Dynaudio X12's, for example, have a sensitivity of 86dB.

[AllenLowe]

well, I give up on trying to sell some over-priced speakers; next, thinking of putting my PSB bookshelves up for sale....

[Scott Dolan]

Are the PSB's what you recent purchased to use for mixing? Were they not adequate?

[AllenLowe]

love my PSBs but I am consolidating my studio to mix in a tight little circle; going to get the PSB powered speakers.
