Sure it's a pain in the ass, but that's half the fun. Just take a look any day, every day and you'll see a minimum of 200+ new listings for various pieces of equipment from under $100 to tens of thousands of dollars. Go ahead and give it a shot, the worst that will happen is you might converse with some pretty decent and knowledgable audiophiles and at best, you just might get a fair price for your speakers with a minimum amount of hassle. Or you can put an ad for your speakers in the local rag and get calls(hopefully) from people that want to know what the hell are Hales! It's your choice, but I'd put my money on Audiogon. I have many times and will continue to do so as long as I have equipment that I want to buy or sell. Good luck!!!
