Ich verkaufe hier ein Paar Standlausprecher der britischen Marke PMC. Es handelt sich um das Modell Twenty5 23. Die Lautsprecher sind 2,5 Jahre alt (Original-Rechnung der Fa. Audio Connoisseur vom 11.02.2022 liegt bei). Die Lautsprecher sind in einem tadellosen Zustand. Der Verkauf erfolgt, da ich mir das Nachfolge-Modell Twenty5 23i gekauft habe. Ich war mit dem Klang der Lautsprecher sehr zufrieden. Insbesonder der Bass ist angesichts der geringen Gehäusegröße sehr beeindruckend. Anbei einige Links auf Testberichte: https://pmc-speakers.com/sites/default/files/attachments/HFC_425_PMC_Reprint-LOW.pdf https://www.whathifi.com/pmc/twenty523/review

PMC Twenty 23 Floorstanding Speakers, fully working condition, 3 month warranty PMC Twenty 23 Floorstanding Speakers, fully working condition, 3 month warranty Here we have a nicely crafted pair of speakers from British loudspeaker specialists PMC (Professional Monitor Company Limited) who were founded back in 1991. The company began by building studio monitors and very quickly established themselves in this field, being used by many recording artists all over the world. They also found similar success when they branched out to build domestic loudspeaker systems. The pair of speakers we have here are in the diamond black finish, in fully working condition, with a few small blemishes on one speaker, in particular a chip on the right hand side please see photographs note that the white marks are just light reflections. They come packaged in their original boxes with grilles and our standard three month warranty. PMC say…. Your first impression of the twenty.23 is of an open and engaging loudspeaker, its size defying both the depth of bass it can offer and the scale of its presentation — it takes any music or film material in its stride. The sound is vivid and dynamic and delivered with authority — with your eyes closed, the location of the speakers can be hard to determine. Such is the realism of the twenty.23’s sound. The isolated stabilising plinths de-couple the cabinet allowing greater stereo focus and tighter defined bass. ATL Technology The source of PMC’s legendary natural, realistic sound is the Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading technology, professionally proven all around the world. ATL uses energy generated by the bass unit in a much more intelligent, efficient way than speaker designs based on ported or sealed boxes. Greater detail & more natural – A full, rich sound at any volume level – Deeper bass from a smaller cabinet Available Finishes: Jet Black Crossover Frequency: 1.8kHz Dimensions: H 918mm (+25mm spikes) x W 152mm x D 330mm (+6mm grille) Drive Units: LF PMC twenty series, lightweight doped 5.5”/140mm cone with cast alloy chassis; HF PMC/SEAS®, 27mm twenty series, SONOLEX™ soft dome, Ferrofluid cooled Effective ATL™ Length: 2.4m Frequency Response: 29Hz – 25kHz Impedance: 8 Ohm Input Connectors: 2 pairs 4mm sockets (Bi-amp or Bi-wire) Weight: 13.2kg Manufacturer : PMC Model : Twenty 23 Serial Number : 1289/90 Packaging : Original Accessories Included : Grilles Price When New : £2200 Shipping Shipping cost:Please contact us or check listing info.

We offer a full No Quibble Return, Swap or Refund and we are here to help. In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. Anyone buying or selling records through the magazine must use our conditions to state what amount of wear and tear the disc, its sleeve and/or contents have been subject to. The seven standard condition categories, and a description of what each one means, are listed below: MINT (M) : The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc. FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
