@coralkong I read your comment a couple days ago, but I forgot to thank you for your recommendation. I'm looking into purchasing a pair of the Falcon LS 3/5a at the moment. That anniversary version is really catching my eye. I know it costs a couple hundred dollars more, but it's so tempting...
Can anyone identify these speakers?
I wanted to know if anyone can identify these speakers, thanks.

You're welcome. Those are some beauties, for sure. As for the wise-a$$es, I wouldn't take it personally. All in good fun. Good luck. P.S. the ls3/5a has been around in some way, shape or form, in several brand names since the 60's. For very good reason. Excellent bookshelf speakers. Can't go wrong, really....

I’ve had the bug for over fifty years but only just recently learned how great small speakers can be. It was always big floorstanders for me (up to 300-400 pounds) until we were forced to live in an old travel trailer for over 2-3 years. After listening to built in automotive speakers for a while, I started reading about and trying out small bookshelf designs. After experimenting with close to three dozen examples, it finally penetrated my skull that there are some very fine small speakers out there. And a number of them sound much better than floorstanders in small rooms. And that’s true of vintage stuff as well as new, fancyass top shelf speakers. HEAVY stands and BluTack are essential to get the most out of them. 150+ pounds of lead in each stand is a huge deal. Cost is not a huge correlative. Small inexpensive room + small, inexpensive speakers + competent front end = astounding quality of sound. |
