Yes, I did not realize that the price of £225 is for a PAIR; usually price is given per driver. I guess the £225 per pair is not and of the world but I still insist to pay 65 cents per 1 Euro as it use to do… In past I never dealt with Fane directly. There was a pro audio dealer in UK:  “Nightfire Acoustic Technologies”. His site was www.pa-direct.co.uk but he is out of business foe a few years. The owner name was Ian and each time I needed any amount of the drivers Ian send me as many I needed. All of my drivers were custom and over the years I think I bought 16 of them for a number of people. There was never regular service denial from Fane, never any request for bulk production, what has happened now?

I do not know why we are even having this conversation anymore. How could you miss that the price was for a pair baffles me. As far as I know, people want to buy these drivers in pairs and I stated that the price was for a pair. But now I understand better your shock at the price. As for Fane requesting bulk production, I am tired of repeating that Fane never requested anything of me. I asked them if they could make these drivers and as with many other companies, it makes no sense to place orders with different suppliers if the intention is to build just one pair, which is why they specified that the minimum order for this to make commercial sense to Fane was 50 units.

You go on to talk about service denial from Fane. But this is simply not the case as these drivers are not current production anymore and Fane is well within its right not to manufacture these any longer.

 A few years ago your new friend  “anubisgrau”, the silent designer of the SWING loudspeakers ( www.bd-design.nl), in response of my very specific criticism of many Swing ideas and use of BMS  started very stinky  and very low class character demonization campaign on line. The dirt was able to engage the subject of my criticism but he, along with a few dirt backs from his neighborhood, was effective (considering for taste his audiences) to convince them that they need to run a buy Swings because Romy was “fegg”, “Osama sympathizer”, “16-year old teenager” and the rest this that so nicely worked for his constituents.  In my book, this behavior is not accidental and a clear justification that the asshole need to be run with asphalt roller. The most disgusting was that in a few years, when he moved to different projects, he was debunking the Swings ideas copping the text from my site and rephrasing my words.  Do you want to talk more with me about this “anubisgrau” piece of garbage?  Did you even see Lecleach, Geddes or Hasquin to behave in this way? BTW, John Hasquin was a person to whom I gave a pair of Studio 8M as taking of my respect and appreciation. The only thing that I would give to “anubisgrau” would be an incredibly strong kick if his tucking face.

Where did you get the idea that "Anubisgrau" is a friend? I did not know him or of him before a couple of days ago when he contacted me about the Fane 8Ms.

You probably again misunderstood what was written on 'Diyaudio" in my post where I said:

"First of all, I would like to thank all those who have given this group buy some momentum. Gordan (A.K.A "Anubisgrau") a friend pointed me to the thread at Hifiwigwam that you started - many thanks indeed."

If you read carefully, I am explaining to Gordan that a friend of mine (not him) told me he started a thread at Hifiwigwam, another site where I have nearly never been, for which I said many thanks indeed. Saying thanks to a person I have never met or spoken to does not make him a friend, but it makes me courteous, courtesy being a quality that i happen to prize rather highly. As for the 'Swing' speakers and everything else you talk about, I honestly don't have the slightest clue about any of it.
