The seller of the second link has another one for sale which is not listed.
At first I wasn't sure if these are the same speaker (the second one doesn't have "The Crescendo" written on it) but they have the same model number: 122326, the seller of the second speaker has also sent me the cone code: 10 003.
I wanted to buy these up but decided I don't really need them and I'm sure you guys are interested in these. They'll probably go for cheap as well. Go for it! Go, go, go!

My, oh my, oh my. Dr.Hiwatt, are you already on these?

As would I. You can tell from the pictures how lopsided those gigantic magnets look compared to the delicate cast frames. It'd take some really good packing to raise my comfort level .
it seems simple, and could be if the shipper uses "Instapak" or a similar product and packs each speaker separately. Just like Eminence does with their new products.
Two speakers in a box is certainly doomed. The magnets are ridiculously massive and the aluminum frames are not sufficient to handle any impact with weight of the magnet behind it.
Good luck getting a seller to pack them adequately!
They have always shipped very expensive Celestions, JBL's, etc to the USA before with no problem......
I'm still the leading bidder of the second speaker and am still thinking about going further ..
You probably know by now that I'm not very happy with the current speaker setup I have, but I don't know if the Crescendo's will actually suit my playing. These seem like the perfect Gilmour speaker and although I love his music/sound I don't play that stlye that much or at all really. I'm more into strumming hard and oldschool rock 'n' roll music ... will these deliver?
Btw, Dr. HIWATT ... did you fix your Crescendos and gave them a try?
Well guess what, I just bought the first one! I decided to give them a try and who knows maybe my speaker quest will finally be over ... err, well not really, as I'll have only 3. But I remember seeing them on ebay.de before so I'll just wait for one more.
