    Free MC120.2's !!

    We took a beautiful pair of BeoVox MC120.2 speakers in part exchange yesterday from an elderly lady who had them from new.  They sat in the beautiful lounge of her £1m country home and were only ever used at low volumes playing classical music.

    However, they have the dreaded foam rot and require the foams replacing.  They are in beautiful original condition and are way, way too good to throw away.

    I am happy to give them free of charge to the first person to collect them from LifeStyle AV here in Eastbourne, East Sussex - or i will ship them anywhere in the world for the cost of packing materials and delivery.

    Please bear in mind that they are big, and heavy. Shipping them to Europe would be around £50-90, USA around £250, Australia about £300..  However, UK shipping would be about £30.

    Anyway - here they are...

    I'm always happy to give things to good homes here on BeoWorld.  I will try and rustle up a few more bits as time permits, but i'm ever so busy at the moment.

    Keep your eyes peeled though!

    Damn & blast!

    I'd have been in for these like a shot but the miserable sods in our IT dep't have blocked access to all fora so I missed these beautiesSad

    Well done Spiros - you won't be disappointed, I have some white ones and are my favourite B&O passive speakers.

    Enjoy the speakers Spiros!

    In that condition they would be worth having just as furniture, they really do look perfect.

    I rate my MC120.2's above pentas for all "normal" listening volumes. Sure for almighty loudness the pentas win but even then the 120's are not that far behind.

    Spiros, Congratulations !

    Great to know that the speakers ended with a new caring owner.

    So it's now proven once again that it pays off to visit Beoworld often.  Laughing
