Good day to all. I am trying to find out if anyone has sampled the goods on the Eficion F200 speakers. I have an opportunity to buy a pair in almost unused condition. Reviews are out there, but not in any depth.
The set up looks good;

◦Impedance: 8 ohms (minimum 6.4 ohms).
◦Tweeter: Purified aluminum ribbon tweeter with innovative honeycomb structure.* Woofer: 6.5″, non-woven carbon fiber sandwich cone, massive 2″ voice coil has an innovative copper shorting ring and a damping coil. **
◦Crossover: 2kHz.
◦Dimensions (HWD): 17″ X 10″ X 13.6″ .
◦Price: $3400 pr.
Anyone with comments or remarks.. Please chime in.. Thanks

A quick "google" of Eficion results in ever direct link to the manufacturer being dead (leads to "Startlogic" website hosting).
Me? I've bought plenty of things from manufacturers who no longer exist (and some who still exist, but offer pretty much nil support for older products).
At the $500 level you mentioned, I'd jump and enjoy.
when I started considering the Eficion's, the manufacture website was easily accessible. The re-direct just started yesterday. I'm all in on the F200's.

Or, maybe you don't want to disclose the asking price and that's OK too...IMO, they seem like very nice speakers but they are rarities. $3400 new, so I'd say that if the seller is asking $2400 - $2600, consider buying them. Those look like speakers that I'd enjoy owning!

This is not a misprint.....$500 He has no idea what he has. He's not into audio or music, and is not interested in starting. I'm picking them up, without question. I just wanted to know if any A/A folks know anything about the Eficion line.

Dave,
Let me know if you run into another $500 opportunity like this. The EFICION f200's are a steal at that price!
No brainer. You'll find out for yourself how good they are (or are not)... later on...
Be sure to let us know how you like them!
I do know someone who visited the Eficion demo booth at the International Audio show in Chicago. He simply described the F200's as a work of art, sonically as well as aesthetically. I'll post info after I get them comfy.
