Anyone heard PSB Imagine T3?

I've heard both and they are very different sounding speakers. The PSB T3 speakers are very neutral in tonal balance as well as having much better bass extension being rated with output down to 24 Hz. The Tannoys have what some find to be a euphonic coloration which gives them a somewhat unique perspective on the music. I find it too intrusive for long term listening but others find it to be engaging. It's very subjective choosing between such different sounding speakers and I find it hard to better describe them. I hope this helps a bit.

My store, Audio Doctor, in NJ sells both brands, the Tannoys work better on tubes and their treble is way more forward. The older NAD stuff is okay the M3 was quite powerful but lacks the transparency of their later products. 

Either way I would upgrade to a better amp and source then a Node if you really want to hear what either speakers can do. The new NAD 32 integrated is mind blowing and represents a huge step forward over the older stuff, other great integrated depending on room size and volume required, Unison Research a Unico 90 high current hybrid, the new Micromega M100 looks promising we will have all three on display. 

My feeling with the right amp and source the T3 is a more refined speaker with a much more realistic soundstage.

Thanks Bill and Audio troy for your valuable inputs !.. appreciate !

finally got the PSB T3 about 2 weeks ago ... they are going through the various phases of break in !!! ( quite radical changes i must say .. and for me who always questioned break in )
waiting for it to settle down finally ...

initial impressions ..simply stunning neutral speakers and very musical .. quite happy that this one important aspect is taken care of and a good foundation for future system build ..
cant agree more with all you guys .. thank you .

just 2 more questions to complete the bal set up upgrade as i feel its not well matched at the moment
need help on below ...


Existing set up 

bluesound node ( streamer for NAS + inbuilt DAC ) > NAD M3 > PSB t3 
> all connected with evidence interconnects + speaker  cables 

.Proposed changes 

1. Interconnects - changing the cables from existing evidence to supra sword interconnects + supra quadrax  speaker cables factory bi wired ready 

2. DAC ?.
 bypass DAC in existing BLUESOUND node ( i feel ..some more transparency can help ) was thinking of a NAD M51 to take the digital out from Node to the M51 dac and  NAD M3 amp                                 or 

just get the NAD M32 amp as Audio troy suggests > as an all in one option .. question is the NAD m32 built in DAC that much better than a NAD 51 seperate ?..


thanks for any of your inputs !

Just talked to Dave store, owner, and we do have an M32 on order. 

They are shipping out soon,  The Dac should sound the same as what is in the M51 which is a great dac, extremely smooth and musical. 

You guys who haven't yet purchased the T3 might also want to listen to the new Paradigm Persona, a bit more expensive $10k vs $7.5 for the PSB but extremely good deep bass and amazing clarity an equilly fantastic speaker. 

Not sure if this is the right place, but since it's been discussed, any comments on the sound quality of the NAD M32 and the BluOS "add on" and app. Also comments on a comparison between the NAD M32 and the Moon ACE would be appreciated. Expect to use either with the Focal Aria 936 speakers. Thanks so much.
