SOLD: SOLD PENDING PAYMENT: SGR CX4 F Mk II Active Speakers

[andrewyuri]

Further information:  I have spent 40 years in this hobby and have been passionate about my music and audio so it's not going to be easy letting these speakers go.  During the past few years I have owned Yamaha (NS1000Ms), Duntech Marquis, Magneplanar 3.1, Sonus Faber and ProAc's but the speakers I have enjoyed the most are these SGRs. However I have now decided to downsize and reclaim some real estate in the house.

The speakers are a sealed design and therefore easier to position in the room however no large speaker with prodigious bass is going to be dead simple to place in a room.  When set up properly, the SGRs reward the listener with even, extended bass down to the mid 20Hz region and imaging that I had thought impossible in a large floorstander.  For music, you certainly won't need subwoofers in the mix.

The built-in amps are terrific - four channels of class AB per speaker amounting to 650W per channel.  All filters are in the analogue domain.  SGR have come up here with a design that produces great transients - reminding me of electrostatics - and excellent 3D sounstaging.  Music sounds just like it should - REAL and effortless.

The cabinets are in very good condition (the SGR standard of finish is fantastic) with only some very light swirl marks from dusting.  The Gaia feet are not included in the price although an attractive price can be negotiated.

I only have the internal cardboard boxes for these and NOT the transport crates so pickup would be preferred.  I am open to discussing transport options with buyers.

The CX4F Mk II is a current model and RRP is $33,000.

I think I need to sell a kidney!

These look mint! (Bet they sound it too)

Good luck, should move quickly, unfortunately I can only dream at present.

Way out of my league, but I have heard Andrew's system...  absolutely stunning.

 

Again...  Buy with confidence here.

 

GLWTS.

Thanks for the kind words all.  Yes, this is an amazing system and because it's in a highly treated room (bass traps behind those front red curtains plus the absorption panels and diffusers, you get to hear just how good these speakers are.  An incredible Australian product!

Surprised you’re letting these go Andrew. If I had the cash, I’d be driving around now to grab them!

What are those little boxes just behind the speakers?

[andrewyuri]

Those boxes behind the speakers are the power supplies for the amplifiers.  They weigh several kgs each and free up space inside the enclosures.

What are you downsizing/downgrading to?

[andrewyuri]

Not sure yet but whatever it is, it's going to be far more modest than the SGRs.  But then again my expectations won't be sky high either -  I am not looking to stay at this high a level.

Hi @andrewyuri

 

Have a look at the Dutch 8c’s. They’ve been a game changer for me.
