At the risk of offending the Naimsters I think you might be right.

There's a Harbeth / Luxman dealer not too too far, so I'll be able to audition a wide range of Harbeths and Luxman amps as soon as Covid allows.  Heard the P3ERS with Accuphase ... blown away. While my current room is a relatively small sitting ro...

Update :  the P3 ESRs are breaking in nicely.  My Creek amp can get them to decent volume but I need to try something more powerful to make a final call.  As soon as Covid allows I'll audition some Luxman / Harbeth combos.

I like Amazon's return policy, pretty flexible. Their packaging is wasteful though. In my experience, sending LPs using the boxes specifically designed for LPs are safe enough.

The P3s are replacing my Totem Arros, and these too have great attributes: fast, detailed, tuneful, decent bass.  This said, it was time to try something else after 15 years and the tweeter has never been to my liking especially on the stuff I lis...

Hi Everyone,Received my pair of P3ESR SE in rosewood yesterday.  So here is a quick report :- These are just first impressions : 1) My Creek Evo 50A can drive them but it will not make them sing.  They like power.  Alan Shaw is right they are not ...

These are all great suggestions (Unison Research, CJ, Luxman 550).  At this time, I have to say that the 550 is very enticing (pure Class A).  This said, I don't understand the hangup over 505, the build / layout look very similar to the other Cla...

Luxman has great MM/MC onboard phono, the Supernait is only MM and I want to keep boxes to a minimum.  Also, from the reviews, I think the Luxman may have more of the signature sound I'm looking for (balanced), call it pipe and slippers if you wan...

 I'm thinking that I should look a bit more into the future.  The amp will have to be a good match for P3ESR for now but it should also be able to power larger Harbeths down the line to feed a bigger room (M30 or HL5).In the meantime, the turntabl...

Luxman is back on the list.  Will audition vs Naim Supernait.

With a sub I can imagine so.

My mistake.  The point about this review is that it fails to capture what the P3Esr are really about.  To me the P3s is a well designed speaker that does what it does with class leading attributes.  It's a set of speakers to which you can throw se...

Was reading Darko's review of the P3ESR SE. He should have listened with his ears instead of his eyes and with another product than Heed Class D...

Thanks for all the recommendations, they are all going on the list for further consideration.  An all in one solution for the phono stage and headphones is very appealing. Curious about Unison Research as well.  Lots of options that need direct ex...
