I had a look. The smallest W7 driver costs 350 quid.


Whao baby! I've heard about UK prices, but this!


For reference, the prices for the W7 range at BBG are...

8 - 350
10 - 500
12 - 700
13 - 900

That's inches diameter and UK pounds. Since they're aimed at young blades
who like their mobile audio jewelry, I guess they can charge a premium. I'm
sure they're very good units, but I really don't think I need to spend that
kind of money to get an improvement over what I already have.


Where can I flog a pair B139s for that kind of money?


What's happening on eBay with them these days?


Varies, I'd guess about 80 quid a pair on a good day, up to 120-140 or so. I
went through a flurry of buying up spares about a year ago, and got Kef
bass, mid, treble, xovers, for about 200 quid all-in, various deals.
