AR 3A wonderful speakers.. I never had to work on many AR speakers because they seldom screwed up. I sure like. I seen a few on stands too, that was the ticket. I used QSO 808 with a ring mid driver. I'm actually listening to them right now. Very close in sound. Look at the bass drivers and the cabinets. I don't think these were a matched pair.. ????

I new a guy named Mugs he had a pair of these. They sounded better than the QLS1. Theses were powered by infinity amps and used an Infinity preamp too. No Idea who actually made them.. They were in one of the first large treated rooms, I had ever heard and the guy had 2 (TWO) VMPS passive subs. He worked at the largest record retailer in the Bay Area for 10 years.. 10,000 records at least.. You wanted to hear it, he had it.. :-) Mugs went to heaven. :-) Regards

=1 x5owner1 on the Gallo 3 series. Could sound very good indeed, and at very reasonable price point, esp. by the standards of today's hobby.
I briefly had a pair of 3.5s or 3.6s, but could not get them to sing with the 30wpc amp I was running. I expect they wanted a bit of juice. Weird that the company persists, but discontinued the special speaker in their line (the Strada is good, but not in the same league)

I’ve heard them with Pass equipment. I kept staring at them. I expected Dr. Who to pop up.. They sure disappeared in a room. Jean-Luc Ponty was on the menu. I remember that I brought it.. The guy had isobaric subs made from 1" thick clear plastic. Quit a sight and sound. The drivers had the biggest motors I had ever seen, they must have weigh 50 pounds each. I’ll see If I can fin a pic. Side Note: HAY Crazy SUBS pics are cool. I like all the DIY stuff. I’d give my eye teeth, If I had eye teeth for the ESS Transar ATD, that were all custom. MAN they look good, I know they sound good.. Regards |
