When I set up my home studio a few months ago, I bought myself a pair of Mackie monitors, forgetting I was also bidding on these Tapcos. Just after the Mackies arrived and were set up in my studio, the Tapcos arrived, and they’ve sat in a corner ever since. However, I need the space (and the cash!) so here they are, up for grabs.
They were used when I bought them and there are a few marks and a couple of gouges in the cabinets (see pics) but none of this detracts from the fact they work perfectly, sound great and will do someone very nicely if they’re the market for an inexpensive pair of nearfield monitors.
Here’s the full spec:

I would very much prefer it if you came and collected them from my studio in the CM0 postcode area of Essex, or I may well be able to deliver them to Essex, Suffolk, Cambs or Kent when I’m on my travels, so contact me to see how feasible this might be. If absolutely necessary, I will ship them, though be warned, they weigh a ton (17lbs/ 7.7kgs to be more precise) which is why the quoted shipping cost is so great. Please note that this is a UK-only auction. I’m NOT prepared to ship these speakers overseas.
Good luck – and please don’t be afraid to ask if you have any queries or want to see more pics.
