Very rare to find and even rarer in the UK PLEASE NOTE !! THIS AUCTION HAS CHANGED FROM KONUS ESSENCE to . 47 LABORATORY LENS MODEL4722 LENS MK 1 MODEL In my opinion the MK1 is the best model They are amazing little speakers. The rear cable connections are slit. However if care is taken the screws can be loosened and the bare wire slipped through to retighten I have them on LINN KAN stands which I find perfect (not included in sale) Very quick, detailed and clarity is amazing shipping to UK £50 tracked £100 tracked overseas

Very rare to find and even rarer in the UK as they have to be imported at great cost !! especially now with import charges on top I have no original crate / sorry so it is strictly collection only !! I believe these are not a first edition due to having additional washers at the rear speaker connections These were slightly damaged during transit at the bottom / stand area. Please see pics 1 and 2 . you will see a faint line, The speakers were repaired / varnished and stabilised by an expert hi-fi engineer who also added to small thin screw into the base for added support. At no time did any of this affect the sound or performance as it was a crack at the foot / base area. So yes THE KONUS AUDIO KONUS ESSENCE SINGLE DRIVER SPEAKER NOW IN ITS 8TH GENERATION I know some people unless they have been lucky !! enough to hear these speakers !! or are in the hi-fi audiophile know !! will turn their noses up at single driver speakers. Well all I will say is if you can ever find anyone with a pair ask them !!! Read what reviews you can So why are they going ?? Well I have moved into a smaller bungalow and my hi-fi set up is in my lounge So I feel the small area is sadly a little too congested with the Konus So I am keeping my little smaller single driver 47 Lab Lens speakers Are they expensive yes Are the rare Hell yes !!! Can you find another pair ? I cannot So sometimes you just have to pay for something if you really want it Astonishing speakers PLEASE NOTE ONE HEARD AND EXAMINED PURCHASED AND REMOVED FROM MY HOMETHEN THERE IS NO RETURN OR REFUND FOR DAMAGE !! They are much better with small bare speaker cable or small spades 47 LAB SPEAKER CABLE IS PERFECTDUELUND CABLE ALSO AMAZING
