from Listen Up! Summary:
Refined, musical, detailed and polite. Clean, clean, clean from top to bottom. No complaints about musicality or accuracy. Because the 3's are acoustic suspension speakers (no bass port/hole), there are limitations: Inefficiency (they won't play very loud, especially in large rooms); the 3's have trouble filling rooms over 500 sq. ft. with sound. Strengths:
Ridiculously musical and refined. No love hump in the mid-bass. Never a moment of listener fatigue. Haven't hear any bookshelf speaker, regardless of price, that provides as much bang for the buck as the 3's (when played within their limitations). Weaknesses:
Inefficient; won't play loud, won't romp-n-stomp; best in rooms no larger than 500 sq. ft. and matched with receiver/amp stable into 4 ohm load and damping factor of 200 or greater. Not the widest soundstage; easy to assign sound to specific transducers. The gloss finish scratches and smudges was as little as a harsh look. A few compromises on parts quality.
