Item Description
Listed 3 days ago
Pair of almost mint KW153's with covers. Used very little. I bought these when my boys' had a band, and when I already had a a smaller utility PA. They broke up too quick, and after about 6 light duty gigs, the gear has been sitting covered indoors, in a smoke-free, dry room. They were never pushed hard. So you're getting practically brand new speakers that will last for a long time. (I know people more than a few people with sound companies who have ran their KW's 5-6 nights a week for 5 years, driving them hard.) Note shipping is FedEx ground, and $290. each to west coast. Cheaper if you're closer to Maine. Also offering two KW 181's and two Turbosound M18B's separately.
