FinkTeam KIM - thoughts?

Thanks. I have space to get them out from the wall a bit, so they would be able to breathe. I realize how important this is , especially for rear ports. I can only find three dealers in the US, mostly on the coasts, and I am in the middle, tough to demo without a dedicated trip. I would buy used if they showed up. Thanks again for your comments, appreciated.  

As you probably have heard, Colin King of Gestalt Audio in Nashville is highly regarded. Perhaps he would agree to ship on the basis that you could return them within a week if you aren't completely happy.

They appear occasionally on the used market here in the EU, but probably rarely in the U.S.

Please keep us posted if you do end up with a pair, as I'd enjoy hearing your reaction. I've owned many good speakers over the decades, and these, along with the (very different) Magnepan Tympanis have been my favorites.

@whipsaw I don't see any indication that Gestalt reps these speakers. An interesting minimalist site.

I will definitely report back should I go down this path.

Sorry, I must have transposed Fink Team with Wolf von Langa, which Gestalt has carried.

@zlone - Echo Audio in Portland had a pair a couple of years ago. I’d read about them and was curious, so drove over to give them a listen. For what it’s worth, I was pretty underwhelmed by them. I remember walking away wondering what their most compelling quality was… nothing came to mind. I think they were being driven by an older Audio Research preamp and Balanced Audio Tech (BAT) amp.
