Price.

Anyone know the price of the Richard Allan LS3/5a's?

...The bloke is supposed to contact me and the people there are ignorant of the prices.

PS. Joined today - Only stumbled across the site when searching AudioNote.

£500 upwards ???

As at jan 2004 they were around £1000 plus VAT. Slight differences depending on which wood option you went for.

Thanks, Rick.

...I'll stick with the Sterling's if they're over a grand.

He's an excellent man to deal with, so if he's not got back to you asap there'll be a reason.

That's the name I was given.

Re Mike - I mean specifcally in terms of the Recone Lab which fixes broken old speakers. I had a dodgy Linn Kan 2 that needed some work doing on it. Mike advised me they would do the best they could with it. End result was it was as good as new and at a very good price. Also showed me round the premises and let me listen to some LS3/5a's with the built in bass units (AB1's?). Wonderful speaker but way out of my price range!

Basically just a good bloke who tries his best to keep you happy. If you are waiting on something from him I can only assume he is away perhaps as when I have asked for price lists etc they have come through very quickly.

Cheers

Cheers - I gathered people were meaning just a good person to get on with.

...I've only considered the LS3/5a sinse hearing the Sterlings and thought I'd better see what the Richard's were like.
