Phase Linear III Andromeda Speakers [HR][/HR] Give yourself the ultimate holiday gift. For sale is one rare speaker set indeed. This is the elusive Phase Linear Andromeda Speaker System. The brain child of Bob Carver, these behemoths were designed to reproduce a live musical experience. The speaker panels each held two 8" midbass drivers, two 4" midrange drivers four 2" cone tweeters and a 1" soft dome tweeter. The subwoofer module had two floor-facing 12" bass drivers. The frequency response was 24Hz to 20K Hz. Yes 24Hz! Earth rumbling indeed! Rounding out this system was a motion controller, which shaped the sonic experience to your specific listening environment. For starters this particular set is in great shape, especially for being almost 40 years old. The midrange drivers succumbed to foam rot, but were recently re-foamed. All the drivers work flawlessly, and the subwoofer looks fantastic with only a few dings here and there. The speaker grills are in really good condition minus some wear and light staining. The best looking grills can be mounted to face the listener. There are a few other flaws worth mentioning. One panel has a small crack running up the side trim piece from the bottom, which can be fixed very easily. One fuse holder for the Subwoofer is missing a cap, but I am in the process of replacing the whole holder. Unfortunately I do not have the motion control module, but they do turn up on E-Bay. I believe the last set of Andromeda speakers was auctioned on E-bay over two years ago! These are a fantastic example, and will make their new owner very happy. Their sale will make my wife even happier
