Boenicke Audio W5 SE+ in Ash w/ Custom Made Spring Suspension

I do not want to part ways with these phenomenal speakers but came to the realization that with two babies under four they have only been used about 10 hours in the last 9 months.   I was amazed at the stereo imaging and bass these little speakers can deliver which was shocking. When I heard them in Park Avenue Audio where I purchased them from they were pulled out from the wall a lot so was worried when I got them home it would be an issue but rest assured even with the small space I had them the tweeters on the rear is what made my listening experience so different than the other speakers I was using (B&W 8.3D).  

Please note these are the SE+ which is the rare highest end version Sven Boenicke makes.
