Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation Speakers

Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation

This has to be one of the top five best-sounding speakers I have had the pleasure to own for the past 25 years of my audiophile life. 

It's never fatiguing, incredibly musical and transparent, and has that authoritative bass, which easily reaches down to 25 hz as specified by Verity Audio. 

Interesting facts about the Parsifal Ovation series
1) It is the last of the Parsifal models where you can reverse the bass woofer (base unit) direction. No can do for Otello, Leonore or Amadis. Even the newer Parsifal Anniversary can't do this. With Parsifal Encore, you could. But they are much older models. This bass woofer direction change is a game changer. It enables a fine-tuning of the bass. Very useful for those with an acoustically challenging (small limited space) room.
2) The Parsifal Ovation speakers stand above Otello and its predecessor Leonore in their lineup. Just below the Amadis model.
3) The original price was 20k when it was first released.
4) The Parsifals come with the original flight cases so you don't need the crates or freight services for shipping. As each case weighs less than 150 lbs, regular UPS ground can handle them with ease.  


I got this pair just about a few months ago from a really nice pvt seller (original owner) from Canada. I was only holding on to them for about 5 months more or less. So the next prospective buyer will be a true second owner of this pair of speakers.
There were some minor scratches touched up by the piano lacquer master from Cantabile in Yonkers NY. Please see the photos. It was very difficult to point them out in the photos due to my photography skills and the reflective black piano lacquer finish. I would not be concerned about as they are very small and unobtrusive.
All the original accessories are included in the sale (please see the photos attached)

I am looking to sell these speakers quick. That's why my price is well below the average market price (roughly $2000 less). Please check out the audiogon pricing research I posted on this listing.

Lastly, I just want to add that I am selling most of the audio gear you see in the photos due to personal reasons.  One of them to be on sale is a Nagra PSA amp that goes well with the Parsifal speakers. If you find anything that interests you, please let me know.
