Usher Audio X-616 center channel, exc condition

PRICE REDUCED! A reference-level center channel at entry-level pricing.
Offers welcome!!

Selling an excellent condition and beautiful former top of the line (sans the new beryllium tweeter) center channel speaker from Usher. Usher manufactures their own drivers and in fact supplies the OEM drivers for other speaker makers. This center channel is a full-size, full-scale center channel that provides a totally immersive experience for movies or 5.1 channel audio. Additionally, the build quality is phenomenal -- gorgeous white lacquer and birch sides for design flair and bracing, with a perfectly carved birch "narcelle" around the tweeter.

Front ported for easier placement closer to the rear wall. Bi-wireable.

I am the original owner, bought new from an authorized dealer. I have the original packing material. Fantastic condition, includes grill that was never used. Rating is conservative (I never rate anything above 8) though I believe this could realistically pass for a 9.

Never abused, used only for center channel duties as a home theater speaker, and I rarely watch movies.

MSRP $1000

Paypal preferred and willing to split the fee.

Questions PLEASE email - [email protected]. I hate this new Audiogon communication system. Thanks
