Horning Hybrid Ellipse PM65 Mk I. I purchased these from the former Canadian Importer Worldwide Wholesales 11/15. They were manufactured in 2014 or 2015. The cabinet veneer was scratched in shipping from the manufacturer to the importer. Worldwide Wholesales repainted the speakers and sold them to me without disclosing that they had been scratched up and repainted. I was unable to secure a refund. I am selling these for a huge loss!  I am very particular about my stereo gear and so I took the speakers to Speakerworks in Tampa, FL. Here is a list of the work that was performed:
-all drivers were removed and tested. All drivers tested normal.
-the cabinets were sent to a professional automotive painter where he spent many hours prepping the cabinets for paint. They were painted with Standox Silver Stone metallic, which is one of the most expensive paints available.
-the drivers were reinstalled in the cabinets and wired with new Deuland 12AWG (DCA12GA) wire. The wiring was done per Tommy Hornings provided schematic. 
-Deuland silver/graphite resistors installed
-they have been played for 400 hours, as the drivers were basically brand new with very few hours.
These speakers are 98dB efficient and can be run with SET amplifiers, push/pull tube amplifiers or solid state. I am normally a tube fan, but I enjoyed solid state on these speakers as well. I purchase a pair of Avantegarde Duo XD speakers which are my primary speakers now. The Horning Hybrid importer for the United States is Jeffrey Catalano of High Water Sound. He is an awesome guy to deal with and has been super helpful throughout this process. Jeffrey shows systems with Horning Hybrid speakers at most all of the major audio shows and is consistently mentioned for " best sounding " or " most musically enjoyable " room at the show.  There are three small blemishes on the speakers. They are very small and require a super close look to see. One on a top, one on a side, and one on a front under the Lowther. there are scratches underneath,on the bottoms of the speakers that cannot be seen. Overall, they look quite good. I am rating these a six to be conservative.  Shipping is only to the lower 48 is the responsibility of the buyer. I have two custom wooden crates for these that will have to ship with a trucking company. ( I paid $600 to ship them from Canada to Florida 3 years ago ). I have a local audio dealer that will help me find a courier. Please check my Audiogon feedback.
