|   JansZen Z-30 speakers | Carl
Apr 11, 2001 2:09 PM | | I'm not even sure if this is a vintage question, but the speakers I'm looking at seem kind of old.
Anyway, I know someone selling a pair of Janszen Z30 speakers and I love the look and the sound, but he's asking $250 for them. I don't want to get totally ripped off so I'm wondering if this is a good deal. He says they're original and have been used seldomly but on a fairly regular basis. I trust that the insides are in good shape and the outside looks absolutely perfect.
Does anyone have any info on these? Sound like a good deal? Thanks in advance for the help. |

Widely used with AR, Bozak, KLH, Advents, and many other of the better speakers from the vintage days. The drivers were the same used in the KLH 9 full range electrostatic speaker which was a Class A Stereophile speaker when Stereophole mag was just started (the Bozak Concert Grand was the other Class A speaker). I still have a set of JansZen hybrid speakers in need of restoration and used the tweeter array with a variety of speakers. They really added to my Bozak Symphonys. Of course I am biased towards Art's design, having used KLH 9s for several decades. |
