Castle speakers model Chester

2-way transmission line in solid oak casing.
Castle is a traditional English speaker manufacturer, similar to B&W, Celestion, KEF and Wharfedale.
The models are often named after historical places with (indeed) a castle.

This set is in beautiful condition, the speakers sound fresh and lively with a deep reaching, well drawn bass foundation, typical for transmission line speakers, actually very modern.
The devices have always been given the necessary maintenance, they have been checked completely and tested for their proper operation.
The cabinets that were treated with teak oil are still fully intact except for some signs of wear, just like the original cloth covers.

Included are 2 kinds of custom made foam rubber parts to close off the transmission port to dampen the low end reproduction.
Which include:
- high density white foam rubber
- black nubs foam rubber of low density

The bottom has threaded mounts for spikes or device feet.

Due to the heavy weight, shipping is only possible in 2 packages.

Dimensions: 91 x 25 x 23 cm
Weight per speaker: 17 kg
Packaging: RajaBox (see photos)
Shipment: by courier in 2 packages

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
