FS: NHT 2.5i tower speakers, Boston Acoustic VR950 towers + FREE CR2
For sale are the following speakers:
1 pair NHT 2.5i tower speakers -- $575. I've owned these for four years, paid $1200 new when they came out, and they are absolutely FABULOUS, with very good sonic staging and beautifully clean imaging. Check specs he http://audioreview.com/Main%20Speake...7_1594crx.aspx 1 pair Boston Acoustic VR950 towers -- $425, with FREE CR2 center channel speaker. I've bought these more recently to complement my NHTs, and honestly these towers can do just fine on their own -- the center feels "one grade lower" than the towers, hence I'm just tossing that in to the deal. Recently sent to shop for maintenance at the Stanford MechE lab :-) -- they're now running great! I can negotiate on the price, especially if you can buy everything, since I'm going to move some time soon and plan on rewarding myself with a Dynaudio setup. :-) Pickup at Stanford, CA required -- besides, you prolly want to audition these before you buy 'em anyways. Serious offers/inquiries only, of course. Also comes with 48 hour money-back guarantee from me if you don't like 'em. :-) Check specs he http://audioreview.com/Main%20Speake...7_1594crx.aspx |

I've owned these for four years, paid $1200 new when they came out, and they are absolutely FABULOUS, with very good sonic staging and beautifully Bluebook value, $240 Lie. RIPOFF ALERT! VALUE ALERT!!! The above is, of course, a forgery by Brian L. McCarty, r.a.m.'s great pestilence and disease. These speakers are worth every penny of the very reasonable asking price. Check out http://www.worldjazz.tv for my opinion of Brian L. McCarty and his ventures. Call me at (215) 646-4894 and I'll tell you all about him. Brian is secretary of the Far North Queensland Film and Television Association (FNQFTA) in Cairns, Queensland, Australia. Brian L. McCarty resides in a condo at 65 Vasey Esplanade, Trinty Beach, Cairns, Queensland, Australia. It is with great pleasure that I announce that Brian L. McCarty's "Coral Seas" studio project, an obvious scam, is now officially dead. The remains may be viewed at http://www.coralseastudios.com . Brian, we are celebrating your 49th birthday with news that the Coral Seas project has gone belly-up. We watch with great anticipation for the collapse of your WorldJAZZ Scam. It's obvious that WorldJAZZ (http://www.worldjazz.com) is a nonperforming non-asset, simply an invitation for the gullible to lose money. Coral Sea Studios, on the other hand, which McCarty (author of the above post) also maintains, has already sunk beneath the waves. The project is officially dead. Brian, why do you keep around a zombie website? Surely no business partners for Brian L. McCarty! "WorldJAZZ JAZZ MUSIC TELEVISION S NATIONAL CABLE COMING SOON! SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT DAILY JAZZ PROGRAMMING TO BE SUPPLIED BY WORLDJAZZ TO MOSCOW CENTRAL TV BEGINNING DECEMBER 2004" Whoops! The above appears to be a pack of lies from the "WorldJAZZ" website, http://www.worldjazz.com. Moscow Central TV is being informed about this travesty. The website goes on to say, "WorldJAZZ has been named OFFICIAL CO-SPONSOR of the 2004 Jersey Jazz Bass Festival SEPTEMBER 22-25 2004 LIVE BROADCAST PLANNED" But there is no "Jersey Jazz Bass Festival" ! It's a complete fiction! There IS a fishing tournament called the "Jersey Bass Festival". And there's no "PETER THLIVEROSKI". It's a play on the name of Peter Thliveros, a sports fisherman. Lying is Brian's vocation. WorldJAZZ.com is built on the principle of the "Big Lie", first enunciated by Joseph Goebbels. Unfortunately, Brian doesn't know when to stop. The fact of his lying on rec.audio.marketplace results in his constant exposure on Google, which drives away the very suckers he would like to get for WorldJAZZ. We help this process of awareness along with a very active information program. Bluebook Value of Coral Sea Studios = MINUS $270,000. Bluebook Value of WorldJAZZ Scam = Less Than Zero, precise numbers are under INVESTIGATION. The Face Behind the Mask:Scammer Brian L. McCarty, Moscow Central TV, David C.L. Feng, David Ellison, Ying Hong Huang, Lee Hodges, Anthony Ramallo, Melinda Hsu, Melinda Shu 80 Raffles Place, Coral Sea Studios, WorldJazz, Enron, K1 Ventures, Trinity Beach, Cairns, Australia, Boomerang McCarty had an early scheme for Internet radio. He claims to have sold musical performance properties and/or a business plan to Black Entertainment Television for $9.2M. Subsequently, he left Los Angeles. One unsubstantiated rumor is that he left to avoid prosecution for a sex crime, presumably by paying off the victim or family. Once in Australia, he made the acquaintance of the brother of P.M. John Howard, who introduced him to contacts at ABN Amro, an investment banking firm. They created a business plan for some kind of a sound studio, still represented by the website http://www.coralseastudios.com. After approximately a year, ABN withdrew from partnership, but left the studio project still solvent. Some time later, it went bankrupt or nearly so, owing $270,000 to it's employees. At this point, Australia's entitlement law kicked in, paying the employees monies owed them, with the exception of codirectors McCarty and Jeff Wexler. It would appear that McCarty's enterprises failed because he has some kind of mental imbalance, which exhibits signs of both schizophrenia and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The impersonations which he makes of me are a fraction of the numerous identities which he has used in the past, and continues to use, on occasion, in the present. McCarty may actually believe he is the person who he impersonates. Many of the identities are of elaborate construction, taking some six months or more to take shape. McCarty seems to have a magical belief that use of false identities provides a shield. Since his business failure, McCarty has tried to obtain new financing. These methods characteristically rely on false identities and false business fronts. His domain registrations are in the names of nonexistent people, and his websites advertise nonexistent associations and companies, frequently by theft of trademark. For example, my name, Robert Morein, was used as a fictitious endorsement on his website http://www.coraseastudios.com. Since he was caught some three months ago claiming to be a producer for a syndicated jazz music program, his name has not appeared publicly on any of his business enterprises. McCarty is currently attempting to revive his Internet radio scheme, WorldJAZZ, under the name http://www.worldjazz.com. This webpage currently consists completely of false associations and endorsements. There is no "Jersey Jazz Bass Festival", and "Peter Thliveroski" is a modification of "Peter Thliveros", a sports bass fisherman! McCarty has certain bizarre beliefs regarding the pricing of used audio equipment appearing on rec.audio.marketplace. He refers constantly to a book known as the "Orion Bluebook", which reports surveys of audio dealers for prices they paid for used equipment, and prices at which sold. Anyone who advertises on rec.audio.marketplace with prices in excess of the "wholesale average condition" price is subject to attack by McCarty, who does so with the vigor of the Red Brigades. Tactics he has employed against victims are the filing of false crime reports with local police departments alleging that the seller deals in stolen goods and alleged zoning violations. Anyone can become a McCarty victim by disagreeing with him in a public forum. In the past, consequences have been virus attacks, email bomb attacks, defamatory postings, and chronic impersonation. All this is contradictory to McCarty's apparent goal of obtaining finance for his business projects. An intelligent scammer works quietly, while McCarty may be the best known scammer of all time. McCarty is 49 years old, and appears to be ill, requiring intermittent hospital care. He apparently lacks mobility. It is possible that this contributes to his mental imbalance. Among McCarty's aliases, we have: Anthony Ramallo, David Ellison, David C.L. Feng, Ying Hong Huang, Lee Hodges, Melinda Hsu, Melinda Shu, Robert Morein, Robert X Morein, Sylvan Morein, Sylvan X Morein, et al. Keywords: Brian L. McCarty, WorldJAZZ.com, worldjazz.tv, Far North Queensland Film and Television Association, FNQFTA |

He's quoting the wholesale, average price. In fact, private sales typically go for twice that value or more, so you're well in the ballpark. |
