Lenehan Audio ML1 Bookshelf Loudspeakers Selling three ML1 bookshelf speakers.These speakers were purchased from Mike about 13 years ago, and were set up as the LCR in a home theatre system, with in-ceiling surrounds. They were connected to a Denon AV receiver, and mainly used for movies and TV. They haven't been used the last 12 months, but were working well until disconnected.Unfortunately I don't have an amp to demo them, but you're more than welcome to bring your own to test them out.There are also some Lenehan Copper Ribbon Speaker Cables that I will list in another add.Due to the weight,
Is this the sort of deal you jump on? At A$1,100, it sits well below the A$1,390 25th percentile and is a strong buy versus the A$1,678 median for recent comparable AUD listings. On the numbers alone, this looks like a bargain rather than a merely fair offer, especially if the unit is complete and working properly.
What makes it worthwhile is straightforward: Lenehan gear has a good reputation with enthusiasts for thoughtful engineering and musically convincing performance, and a clean example at this price leaves plenty of room for recapping, setup, or just enjoying it as-is. Since condition is listed as unknown, the only real question is functional health and completeness — check operation, cosmetics, and whether any original accessories or packaging are included, because at A$1,100 those details can make this an especially nice score.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Lenehan Audio emerged from humble beginnings in Australia, starting as a converted garage workshop in Nerang, Queensland, before expanding to a dedicated factory in Ashmore on the Gold Coast. Founded by longtime audiophile speaker designer Dave Lenehan, the brand has built a dedicated heritage in handcrafted audio, earning a loyal following among discerning enthusiasts in the region.
The company specializes in exceptional loudspeakers, with models like the acclaimed ML1 standing out for their precise engineering. These passive two-way designs feature high-quality components such as a 5.5-inch Nomex driver, a one-inch soft dome tweeter, and custom-tuned crossovers, delivering accurate, balanced sound. While primarily focused on speakers, Lenehan Audio positions itself as Australian-made high-end audio professionals, emphasizing direct sales to eliminate excessive retail margins.
Lenehan Audio occupies a niche boutique position in the high-end market, prized by knowledgeable hi-fi buyers for superb construction and performance at accessible prices, such as $2500 per pair for the ML1. Its reputation rests on meticulous, small-batch production rather than mass-market volume, appealing to those seeking authentic Australian craftsmanship. Note that as of March 2025, the brand rebranded to Lenehan Brothers under Dave's siblings Russell and Martin.
