These CS-3's are one of the original panel speakers from Emerald Physics that started all the buzz about open baffles. I listed a review at the bottom but you can see other reviews and full profile sheets if you google the model.
These are in excellent shape, and I have thoroughly enjoyed them for the past 2 years in our non-smoking environment. The imaging and tonal quality are by far the best I have yet to hear. I used them with a PS audio 100w/channel amp and REL sub with stunning results. The 'almost live' slogan of the company is right on. The set comes with the Behringer DCX 2496 DSP for tuning. The wood panels are the Cherry finish. There is a very slight blemish on the wood panel you have too look hard to see, but its there. (shown in picture) Everything else about the speakers is near perfect. I ordered the set from Walter Lieberman, and you will see many newer models and all the awards his panel speakers are winning. These will win your ears on a remarkable budget!

I have the carpet spikes and original boxes, but not the packing, so I can figure that part out to safely pack them, as well as the shipping cost depending on your location. I am selling because I have a 7 month old girl, and the speakers are simply too big for our space now with the changes.

Review from Stereo Times:
Emerald Physics CS3 Loudspeaker System ($2,995.00/pair): After only a couple weeks into our relationship, I was smitten by these rather unusual visitors from the future. The CS3 is the apartment-friendly baby of the Underwood Hi Fi managed/owned EP line, and consists of two flat panel speakers employing very high efficiency, large, concentric drivers, whose power handling stats fall just shy of Metallica’s touring rig. The system is designed to be used with a sub – kind of a must, as the main speaks hit bottom at about 70Hz or so. So now we’re talking ultra-high efficiency, super high power handling, large concentric drivers paired with a separate sub??!! Sounds like a mismatch in the making, right? And it would be—if you, my friend, were controlling how it all blends. Thing is, you aren’t. See, the crossover is external and completely digital and this processor also improves tremendously upon the system’s measured in-room performance, allowing for astonishingly flat in-room frequency response and ease of placement that would make a table radio jealous. But it all wouldn’t matter if… this system didn’t deliver punishing dynamics, the best imaging I may ever have heard from a pair of loudspeakers (it’s really uncanny at times!) and lightning quick pace. Yep—the computer-aided perfection extends to the tonality as well, making this system among the most amazing speaker systems I have yet to hear. Oh—I should probably add—at any price.
