    Default I love my Ascends!

    Even after owning the 340SE for many months now, there are still times when they just make me say Wow. They really are awesome speakers. I have them paired with a VTF-3 MK2 and soon, a VTF-3 HO.

    p.s. It's sad that I can't sell 3 practically brand new Onix X-CS speakers on Ebay for $299.

    Why would you try to sell ID brand speakers on eBay? You'd do much better to post ads in forum "for sale" sections like AudioCircle and AV123 iteself. Plus, it's free.

    Low demand for triple center channels? =P

    Also, auctions with high starting bids don't usually do so well. A lower starting bid can start a bidding war which will actually turn out higher.

    Hmm, well they can be used as left and right as well. They are MTM speakers just like Ascend 340s. Well, they don't sound as good.

    I've seen plenty of ID speakers on ebay in the past. This is my second time listing these speakers. The first time it got around 300 views. It's surprising that speakers which are practically brand new can't even sell for 70% of the regular price.

    Maybe I should lower the starting price. People are silly.

    Have you tried at AV123 and their classifieds forum?

    Are you outside the 30 day trial window?

    I would say that part of the problem might be that they are so new and still relatively unknown, especially to ebay.

    You might try audiogon, which has more a more knowledgeable audio crowd.

    Ya, I think I am outside the trial window. It wouldn't matter anyways. I would have to pay shipping back to them. Maybe I'll just give them away as Christmas gifts.

    They would be a nice present to someone without.

    70% with shipping.....100% and out shipping....seems like a wash.
