    Acoustic Research vs BBC innovations

    I’ve been enjoying comparing vintage AR suspension speakers with BBC (spendor) monitors of I suppose similar vintage eras of inspiration. (My AR10pi are based on 1960s era AR3 to some extent as my SP1s are upgraded BC1s from the same decade). I’m wondering if anyone has expertise in the pros and...

    Harbeth m30.2/Graham ls 5/9/Harbeth superhl5 plus

    Hello :beerchug: I need your advice in selecting acoustics. There is no way to listen to all models. I listen mostly to pop, jazz, a bit of ambient. A big fan of Moby. In acoustics, I appreciate the ability to convey the realism of vocals and voices. The bidders for the purchase were the BBC...

    What are some good options?

    I'm considering buying new speakers, either bookshelf or stand-mounted. They would be for a small room (8x9 ft) with not a lot of placement options and would be connected to a Primaluna Prologue Five. I want something versatile and reasonably bassy (not crazy bassy though). I'm considering...
