???Compare-Contrast & Comment???5 Pairs Large Monitors

You can find my take on the Spendor SP2/3R2 against the Harbeth M30.2 Anniversary here: https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/2700741

I have found the Spendor Classic 100 (same series as the 3/1 you are inquiring about) to sound even more colorful than my SP2/3R2. As a side note, I wouldn't call the 3/1, M30.2 etc. "large"; 2/3 are "quite large" (but my brother called them "huge", to my amusement as I was also having a pair of Martin Logan Impression 11A at that time, so I guess it depends on one's point of reference); Classic 100 and M40.x are "LARGE"!

Man I wish this thread would get some attention..Many of the speakers I listed haven't had recent input,some not in 10 years!

THOUSANDS of Audiogon users,I would think at least 1% own one of the speakers I listed & yet only 1 response,SADDD,very sad..

if you are moving to the Philippines, why would you take them? :)

it was a joke (attempt at least). Not in any way an attempt to pick a fight.

If I freaked out and threw obscenities at everyone who made irrelevant comments under my posts, I would be messaging all day. I think you overreacted but that's just me. 

I have duly noted, no jokes with you. My sincere apologies for upsetting you.

Jokes and audiophiles usually don't mix well.

subject-wise

https://speakerchoices.com/ has all these except a different Spendor Classic version as well as the Fritz. You can select and compare the specs of all if you wish. I have only heard the Sonettos

With my personal experience, not ever hearing the Sonetto's, I would choose between the Fritz and De Capo's. Slightly leaning to the extremely efficient Carbon 7's. Those are all great choice however.

Side bar: if my mammary serves me right, the De Capo WAS the stand mount monitor that made the BBC's insignificant by audiophile standards.

Not to stir the pot too much.

Well, I own the Fritz Carbon 7 SE MKIIs. Can't make any comparison to the others mentioned. I find the Carbons to have a very even tonal balance, play deep enough into the bass region for my tastes (room about 11x15x8.5'), great soundstaging and image focus, with good dynamic range. A side from the sonics they are easy to drive having reasonable sensitivity and I believe more importantly a flat *ohm frequency response.  I drive them with electronics (pre & amp) costing 3X their price.
