Castle left me standed without rears :s
Hi, over the last year i've been putting together a home cinema system.
So far this includes: Pioneer dv565a player
NAD T751 reciever (got cheap and will upgrade in the near future)
Castle Howard S3's as mains
Castle Bastion centre speaker.
Problem: The company closed before I managed to buy my rear speakers. Have been searching the internet for uk hifi stores and ebay daily for someone to list a pair ( richmond's, durham's ect) but had no luck in about two months. What can I do?
P.S. Please dont tell me to sell the castles and buy another speaker system, I love the Howard's as they are my hifi speakers too. And I dont want a sub.
Any solutions/contacts would be greatly appreciated.
whao, quick work. hope its not asking too much but I should have said the rest of the system is in cherry finish :s Also would it be rediculas to use a pair of the compact sats as rears? just incase they turn up before others? thank-you
Couldn't find any cherry ones, but how about a pair of light oak or maple which you could stain or oil darker to match the rest?
But yes compact sats on the rears would be fine





Pair of ex-display natural oak R3is here, maple pair here, and another maple pair here.
