    Maybe you could knock a few AN's apart and use the boxes as shipping crates.

    Thanks, the problem with these types of sellers is that they dont care about money. He doesnt care about 70 or 80 thousand dollar. He doesnt even care about the sound but wants a Statement speaker to impress people. So you cant buy this guy, there is no way to build up any preasure.

    Luckily the DIVA is amongst the best in the world and the best i ever heard so i am in no rush to sell them. If this will not work, then i will stick with my babys and upgrade to KLM 2 ribbons (the lightest ribbons there are). Time to move out anyway :-)

    He is willing. I need to raise some cash tough, so the system is for sale. G.M, if there is ever a chance to buy a system that will walk over a Wilson X2 in its sleep for a bargain price. This is the time...

    You are killing me. :incazzato: You know I would If I could. Already spent $10k this week on upgrades to the house. $4k last week on wifey's trip to see her mom. $2k 2 weeks ago to repair the car. $4k yesterday on two HD projectors for the house.

    Just don't have enough to go around.:sad:

    Once the house is done (or at least built) I can think about system upgrades. Well, I can still THINK about them now. Just can't do much about it.
