Monitor Audio BR 5

loughan

John,
How much for a pair of Monitor Audio BR 5 to replace Mission 773e in a 7.1 system? Other recommendations welcome.

I got a set of the BR5's off John about a year ago - brilliant speaker and I would highly recommend them.
I replaced a set of mission in my surround setup with them and they made a good difference.

I recently purchased the BR6 from John. They really are an awesome speaker. If you can stretch to it I'd defo go for these.

John,

Sounds very tempting. I could replace the 914i's with the BR6
I have till Monday to decide

I have RS6's and RS8's and they are truly stunning speakers for the money with the bonus of being beautifully built and an amazing finish no matter what colour you are looking for.

Have not heard the BR5's to be honest, but BR5's were selling at £520.00 awhile back and my original RS6's cost £650.00. So to be offered them for £379.00 is quite a deal.

Let us know how you get on, would love to hear your comments on whatever you decide on.

Hi,
Bog master is spot on. Has to be the RS6s. They're a better sounding and better looking speaker. If they have the RS6 in the finish you want it's a no brainer.
Good luck,

John,

What finishes do you have in stock - light oak perhaps?
Are these in shop in Belfast? Ill be in city this week and could drop in.
Thanks for the recommendations guys.

Just another rant from me. In my opinion, dont get hung up on finishes/colour if you cant get what you initially want. My RS6's were in black, was not sure initially, but with these speakers and the finish and construction, you want to highlight them, not have them blend in to the decor. Also with the black 6'S I got a Centre of Rosenut. With a centre if you have any sort of av rack, you see little of the actual finish/colour.

Currently using RS8's Walnut with a Cherry Centre, and to me the same applies, not only outstanding speakers, but a fine speciem of furniture.

Go for it, and welcome to the MA Club!

Popped into the Belfast shop yesterday, but they didn't have the white 45HD's in stock. I'll take a pair of them from you for the euro for pound price, ta very much.

I'll take a set of these off your hands - thanks!

What colours are available ?

Hi John, I'd be interested in these if they're available in black.

OK Guys - here is the story - I screwed up - we only have 2 pairs of RS6 available at that price...one pair in Walnut and one pair in Cherry and we can do these at £379.95/€399.99.

...However here is where I screwed up! We miscounted our RS6's and instead I can clear some RS8 at £399.95 / €429.99 :eek::eek: Now there is a proper deal!

We have them available in the following finishes: Cherry / Rosewood / Natural Oak.

1st come 1st served.

Keep me posted and apologies for the delay getting back to you all!

Hi John, so much of me keeping a few quid aside for christmas, I just spoke to Ursula and have ordered up a set of the RS8's, so many thanks for the cracking price.
It's impossible to let this pass at these prices..... now I have to start saving for another amp and cd player all over again.

Hi John,

Haven't heard anything from Kenny yet - I was away for a couple of days, but no messages on the machine. I'm up in Belfast before new years, if you get stock in, but I'd like to ensure that I can hang on to the euro for pound deal - pair of white 45HD's and white stands to match. If they're not going to be in stock, no worries - I can wait.

John / Ursula / Ashley ,

Many thanks for making my Christmas , I'm listening to my brand spanking new Monitor Audio RS8's as I type and they are truly fantastic.

As always your all feckers for "forcing" me into buying them at such a price, and as always you were wonderful to deal with.

All the best for 2010!

Regards

Just posting to say thanks to John for the super price on the RS8's collected mine on christmas eve and have been listening to them every day since, they are an absolutley stunning set of speakers.
I'd never even have considered buying a set as they are pretty expensive everywhere else still.
Now I am just waiting for a year end stock clear out for an amp and CD player .....

thanks again.

vinniemac

Very pleased with RS8s as well. Got some extra speaker cable and bi-wired them the other day and I've been surprised at the difference it made - I was a bit sceptical beforehand to say the least

ronaneire

Picked up the RX6's today :D, wow I'm impressed even before I have them set and wired up....
Hope they sound as sweet as they look.

Bump on this John/Kenny - any developments?
