Description
Stirling Broadcast LS3/5a V3.2 is the latest version of this third generation of this renowned speaker designed to meet the exacting BBC LS3/5a spec.
They feature the same crossover circuit as the V3, but are hand assembled and the parts are from Jantzen rather than the inhouse parts from the orignal Chinese crossover maker.
Design
The standmount loudspeaker employs Stirling SB4424 and SB4428 drivers housed in thin-walled reference cabinets based on the famous 001/002 pair. The LS3/5a V3.2 substitutes the cloth grilles used on the V2 for superior Tygan grilles. The V3.2 has a lower response of 75Hz which is largely due to the sealed design.
Performance
The legendary sonics of the original LS3/5a speakers are retained with design tweaks that reduce distortion to an absolute minimum. The 8Ω nominal impedance is lower than the original's 15Ω but is optimised for use with typical high-powered amplifiers that are widely avaiable today and helps to achieve real control delivering a low 83 decibal sensitivity for better bass.
Quality Assured
The additional benefit of the 5 year warranty and assurance of the future availability of spare parts gives you extra piece of mind ensuring you'll enjoy your speakers for many years to come. The predecessors of this superb speaker have won many coveted awards including the title of 'Best Loudspeaker under £1000' in Hi-Fi News magazine's 2005 awards issue.
