PMC vs. Salk Sound Speakers. Which is better?

However,I highly recomend McCaulogh(??) audio In Winnipeg Manitoba if you are looking to buy new as he is a fair man to deal with I was told by local Winnipegers.

Well I have owned the PMC IB1 & MB2 and after doing my own research,said ""NO WAY"" to their $peakers.
IB1 is $9999 and uses a $30 tweeter,$70 mid and a car audio woofer.The MB2 at $18,999 got you a basic ATC design mid and a cool woofer worth $300.And R&D time I am sure settles in here but when they wanted $900 for new MB2 grills(mdf & grill cloth)to replace my wraped ones........ I sold it all and will never look back.
NOW
If you can buy a used pair for 1/3 the cost,then your good.

First of all,as I said""at 1/3 the cost they are a great speaker" and 3-4yrs ago I still had lots to learn about the inner industries manufacturing politics.I recently watched a gentleman order some IB2's and all said and done,they were the better part of $15,000 all in.I said that he should wait for a little bit but it was already done. 3 weeks later a used pair of one year old came available(20yr warranty) for $7500...But I personally have learned my lesson.
The grills were off of your USA distribution demos(1yr old) and were left in the box I guess and Maurice told me to buy them myself.I called PMC in England and they said it was going to be $199 pounds each + shipping+taxes for each grill.This grill was 2 pieces of 1/4" mdf glued together with grill cloth and a PMC logo...I sold those $20,000 MB2's for $8000.
A friend of mine went into a Toronto dealer and demoed the PB1i and OB1i and was looking at a cash deal on the OB1i.They said ""for CASH with taxes all in....$7700""He fell on the floor saying $7700 for a 6.5" Morel woofer was a joke and later found a used pair for $2800.
AGAIN,great sound if you can get them for 1/3 the cost.
I see they have a new pair of ""SE"" versions with stands...I wonder what they run a pair with the stands.

Cmon Audiozen...your not going to stop there are you.I am sure Jim appreciates all your doing here for him???
I may dissagree with PMC pricing but they have good SQ.

PMC is a great speaker at used prices,not MSRP....
IB2s are incredible stand mounts and mate best with Sound Anchors but with a retail of nearly $16,000 is insane.
I hade a pair of IB1 that were built in 2000 and they sounded great even after 10yrs and some AB1 that were 13yrs old and sounded great.
..IB2 with that BIG mid can reproduce some great vocals and $7750 is alot better than $16,00+$1000 for stands

Again
PMC IB2 are a great buy at used prices but are a bit overpriced new..
They have pinpoint accuracy and never fatigue or compress which makes them a excellent speaker in my books.......at used price!!!.
