Unfortunately, not an option for me here in Pakistan. The diamond 12.2 sells for 500 pounds here.

Wow, that's a massive difference, you're a lucky guy! Import taxes are high here in Pakistan. I have also seen a Canton karat 707dc selling here for $500, what do you think of that speaker?

Haven’t heard these speakers and I’m under the impression not many people in this forum do. Sorry not being helpful, Jamo is going budget/entry level market, but back in the days they were hi end, my friend owned Oriel floor tower, they were top notch speakers. So if it’s early 2000 I’d say they are decent, however the risk of buying something that old, it’s down to how the owner looked after the speakers. Also the driver or crossover might need placing. In Asia, maybe there’s better chance buying genuine Yamaha, JBL or B&W similar price and probably newer?
