    Re: 875As Virginia CL

    Is that a good or fair deal for these? I missed 2 pairs of M19's on my local craigs this week, an I haven't seen a pair locally in 5 yrs. The first pair I missed I was golfing and they sold in 5 minutes, the seller said, never found the out the price . The next pair popped up at 7:00 am in very good condition for 1200, and I was sure they were mine, they were the second ad listed and I responded within 2 minutes after it was posted but no luck..... These aps people have on there phones makes finding good deals almost impossible in some parts of the country.

    These are the "Granada's" speakers.. Very similar to the "Barcelona's" ,but taller.. $2700 seems a bit high for me.. The woofers are the 411's.They should sound nice though. But way overpriced IMHO... YMMV .

    I agree, John, a little too high, although they appear to be kept in good shape by the original owner. I don't think they are actually taller than the Barcelona's, just not as wide, as they house the 811B horn, as opposed to the wider Barcelona's 511B.
    If you can find a mint pair of either Granada, or Barcelona with a good working 770 biamps, they may be worth that price. Big "if", though.

    I think you are right Dave, they are both about 30" high.

    They aren't as common, but for me 1700-1800 is fair, anything less a good deal. Best bang for the buck is 14's, if not those I would hold out for 19's. They are still around at 1200 or a little more, have your money ready, and watch for prey... there was a pair in Salem Oregon a couple weeks ago for 750. They were gone in 30 minutes.

    Those are "A" version Grenada's with 413 woofers, I wouldn't touch em beyond 1000-1200, and they'd need to be darn near perfect.
