Lyngdorf / Tact Audio W210 Subwoofers (pair) Wood Veneer - LAST PAIR!

Selling a pair of OEM , made in Denmark Tact Audio / Lyngdorf W210 passive Bass Direct Speakers / sub-woofers in wood veneer. Photos also show two pairs of black W210 subwoofers - those are SOLD - only the wood veneer pair left! Purchased new in 2004 from a Tact dealer.  In perfect functional and nearly perfect cosmetic condition (two minor dings on the back  corners of one of the subs, invisible when installed.  The W210's are designed to be placed in the corners of your listening room.  They are very dynamic and fast, and can be crossed over to your main loudspeakers at very high frequencies (up to at least 500 Hz).  I have been using these with my recently sold Avantgarde Trios , and had no problems with integration (using a Tact 2.2 XP DSP pre-amp) or "lag". Please note that these sub-woofers are passive (no built in amplifier) and have NO crossover - there are no adjustments/knobs on the back - just a pair of female banana connections for speaker cables. I do NOT have the original boxes, but will be carefully packed in heavy duty, double walled boxes.  Trades considered, but limited EXCLUSIVELY to Purist Audio Design Power Cords (Aquila or Canorus) and Purist Audio Design digital interconnect (Canorus), or Purist Audio design balanced interconnects (1.5 meter or longer, Proteus, Dominus or Canorus) Buyer pays for shipping. Two boxes measuring 24X24X24 inches, and weighing 90 lbs each. Specifications from Lyngdorf Website (Under "Discontinued Products") Woofer/midrange drivers:  2 x 10” Frequency response: 16 - 3500 Hz Sensitivity (2.83V/1m): 96dB Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohm H X W X D (in): ~ 17 X 21 X 21 More information below from the original Lyngdorf product description: A conventional subwoofer is only capable of reproducing the deepest bass - below say 120Hz - hence the name subwoofer. When using the Lyngdorf W210 BassDirect speaker you typically cross over to the main speakers around 400Hz - or even higher! Placing the W210 in a 2+2 system ensures that the direct sound and the first critical reflections from the floor, side and front walls all arrive simultaneously at the listening position. Compared to the traditionally delayed arrival of several low frequency reflections from a normal full range "box" loudspeaker, with a Lyngdorf bassDirect speaker there is no delay in the way the pressure builds up from e.g. a drum kick. The W210 can free up the dynamics in your system in several ways. We guarantee you that when W210 is placed in a corner, punch and power are delivered with a precision which cannot be obtained from a normal speaker system. This is only possible because of the way these speakers load the room. Furthermore, the corner placement increases the sensitivity of the system (it simply plays louder) which then in return reduces the need for power. Less power means significantly less distortion and much higher headroom in your amplifier. Actually, the W210 is rarely fed with more than 5 Watts, even when playing really loud. And in this case, really loud also means very clean. Conventional subwoofers are designed with heavy cones, large magnet systems, and very poor efficiency due to the heavy moving systems. The moving mass in todays subwoofers can easily exceed several hundred grams. The W210 is designed in a completely different manner with a high speed lightweight driver granting a frequency response which is linear way up into the midrange area. The two 10in Vifa/ScanSpeak woofers are designed more like midrange drivers than woofers - meaning with very low moving mass which results in a high upper roll-off frequency (around 4500Hz!), extremely quick reaction time and very high sensitivity. Actually, the impulse response is better than most midrange drivers. The pole piece is copper plated in the magnet gap in order to reduce eddy currents. This reduces iron distortion and inductance. The result is significantly improved impulse response and reduced distortion. The cabinet is shaped to fit into the corners of a room which gives the further advantage that all surfaces of the cabinet are as small as possible. This together with the 22mm thick MDF board used for building the cabinet ensures an extremely rigid and vibration free construction Furthermore the cabinet is divided into two separate chambers - the partition also working as an internal bracing of the cabinet. The two 10in woofers are placed horizontally opposing each other. This ensures that they "fire" towards the side and front wall ensuring optimal loading of the room. Also the placement ensures that Newton forces are reduced greatly. The movement of the two cones are always counteracting each other and thereby practically eliminating vibration.
