They might also have blown tweeters, or something...</p> <p>I don&#39;t think there are fakes, but it could of course be a scam of some other kind, especially if the seller claims that they are newish and in excellent condition. Most people would have the sense to find out what a new pair costs!</p> <p>But if they are local, perhaps you should just go and take a look (and make sure that they work).</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/326188.aspxSun, 29 May 2011 07:09:43 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:326188dug110https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/326188.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=326188<p>is it possible that someone wants to sell 8000`s for &pound;550??</p> <p>i found this advert in local paper</p> <p>maybe they are fake??</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/326043.aspxFri, 27 May 2011 17:13:00 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:326043Medogsfat0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/326043.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=326043<p>I&#39;ve also heard that the early ones were a bit Bass light&nbsp;but this was apparently remedied on the 2nd &amp; subsequent generation BL8000&#39;s.
