FS: Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) M-1 (M1) Speakers (Set of 6)

#1
Rating: 0
Here we have a set of six Bowers & Wilkins M-1 speakers. These speakers were used only in our record label's office and were working perfectly when we took them down. These speakers are very hard to find, especially in a set of six satellite speakers, and retail new for $200.00 each. This is your chance to get a set of amazing speakers for a fraction of the price of what they cost new.

It seems like this thread got posted twice for some reason.  Please note that I'm only selling one set of these speakers.

I'm very interested in these. I'd like to know when were they purchased and an approximate time of usage (in hours) and under what circumstances (volume, mostly).

I live nowhere near Manhattan but I'm willing to cover the shipping cost.
