Difficult to miss when the manufacturer is mentioning it on Twitter...

It does have it's uses and you can giggle like a girlie when they reply to you and you feel all special as if you've just spoken to someone famous or something.

I'm told...

How's your Mumbai trip going John?

 

[John Duncan]

Victoria Coren's resisting your advances thus far though, I notice...

Badly. Have spent last 24 hours in my hotel room #bitsick

Luckiy, the view is quite good:

Yeah *sigh*, she said Gary Oldman was annoying! I might have to tell her I think Heresy's rubbish at this rate...

Who me? No, cos I'm like, really cool and everything, even that Clare Newsome talks to me sometimes, I'm that wicked...

 

[Clare Newsome]

You rang?

 

[John Duncan]

You rang?

If he did, I'd have your number changed if I were you.

I feel sorry for The_Lhc now.

Sorry to bring this topic back into relevance and sorry to hear about your Mumbai illness and the rest of your in house banter.

However - how much were these speakers originally ? And would they make a decent rear surround set up bearing in mind I have PMC GB1's and PMC DB1c as fronts ? Would they intergrate well ? Need to replace my broken Mission 752 Freedom rears running through a Sony DA5400es av amp ?

Any advice ?

Or any advice on a cheap alternative that would intergrate well with my PMC's ?

I agree with JD...

Peter Tyson & Harrow Audio ( Related To Peter Tyson Via Amazon ) are 9p cheaper with Free P&P. Originally around the £150 mark.

I don't even do that in this country. My guess is the scrambled eggs.

oooOOOooo.

It was more outhouse, if I'm honest...

150 quid

And would they make a decent rear surround set up bearing in mind I have PMC GB1's and PMC DB1c as fronts ? Would they integrate well ? Need to replace my broken Mission 752 Freedom rears running through a Sony DA5400es av amp ?

For 100 quid, you're not going to find much better, at a guess. I'd suggest Diamond 9.1s but cheapest they're going for is 120, and they're a bit chunkier which may be an issue for you. You might lose a *bit* of scale compared to the Missions, but not a huge amount, bearing in mind it's for the rears.

I got it wrong, they're 99.95, so it's only 4p different.

Yep The_Lhc all a good price as you so rightly say.

Thanks John.

One final question - I would be wall mounting the rears and I am liking the look of the AE1's - I also noticed that they come complete with wall brackets so it's pretty much the complete package. However, do you know if the Diamond 9.1s would also come complete with brackets ?
