Spendor D9.2 Floorstanding Loudspeakers I have thoroughly enjoyed my 4 years with these current model Spendor D9.2 floorstanding speakers but have moved to smaller stand mounts. Apart from Spendor muscality and detail, they go much lower than other floorstanders I have had of a comparable size. Because I like some organ and electronic music down to 20Hz, I sometimes used KEF KC62 subwoofers to good effect to augment the lowest bass. Original spikes are included in the offered price. These speakers have been carefully maintained in a dedicated music room and have no issues and no visible scr
This is a seller’s market at this asking price: A$9,500 sits far above your used-market anchor, which puts the median at A$1,345 and the 75th percentile at A$3,823, so this listing is not just ambitious but well beyond the typical range. Even allowing for strong-condition examples, A$9,500 is hard to justify from the comps you provided unless there’s something unusually special about the pair.
That said, the D9.2 is a respected floorstander with real enthusiast appeal: clean, open midrange, solid scale, and the kind of balanced, listen-all-day tuning Spendor does well. If it’s genuinely mint, fully boxed, with stands/accessories and a verifiable low-mileage history, it will be a lovely speaker to own—but at this number, the buyer should be paying for rarity or collector-grade provenance, not just a standard used pair.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Spendor, a quintessential British hi-fi brand, traces its origins to the late 1960s when BBC sound engineer Spencer Hughes and his wife Dorothy founded the company in Sussex, England—the name itself a clever fusion of "Spen" and "Dor." Drawing on Spencer's expertise alongside co-designer Dudley Harwood, they pioneered the BC1 loudspeaker in 1969, featuring the world's first commercial 8-inch plastic cone driver made from innovative Bextrene material. This breakthrough quickly established Spendor as the monitor of choice for broadcasters, recording studios, and discerning listeners worldwide, setting a benchmark for transparent, natural sound.
The brand focuses exclusively on loudspeakers, designing, engineering, and hand-building every driver, crossover, and cabinet in their Sussex facility. Their lineup spans the accessible A series for mainstream buyers, the premium D series for high-end performance, and the Classic line, which revives iconic designs like the BC1 with modern polymer and Kevlar cones, cast-magnesium chassis, and advanced motor systems. Spendor eschews amplifiers, turntables, or headphones, prioritizing pure speaker innovation rooted in BBC-honed precision.
Today, under owner Philip Swift since 2000, Spendor holds a revered position as a high-end, heritage British marque, blending vintage collector appeal with contemporary excellence. Renowned among audiophiles and professionals for smooth, low-distortion imaging and musicality, it remains a global reference standard, entirely made in the UK to captivate serious hi-fi enthusiasts.
