Ok, so it's not EBay but WHAT a bargain. Sintras are regarded by many as the best Royds to have. Sounds like a nice pair in a wood finish too.

Not sure if I would call them 'worth a punt' as they aint peanuts but they look mighty cool!
watching this with interest. don't think they will get a bid for that price but if they do it might spur me on to get mine done up.

I think there's a rule now that you have to post a few times before you can PM. Might be wrong though.

I can't see any email address on there but if you PM me your email address, I will PM him for you and pass it on.

Of course, they are Royd - you cannot go wrong buying any Royd speaker.

They were a bargain at that price, you should have snapped them up. They will probably re-appear on ebay at £200 and they will sell.
