REFERENCE 3A De Capo BE


What's been your experience with the  REFERENCE 3A De Capo BE?

Interesting speaker. No crossover. I'd like to hear how they actually work in the field.

I have the 40th anniversary models with the carbon fiber side panels and woofers, beryllium tweeters and some woofer mods and also a very thick inert ported rear panel. They only have 1 cap to crossover the tweeter, which extends out to 40Khz. I think it's now a high quality Mundorf cap.

They produce ample bass flat down to 40HZ with extended highs, very detailed light and airy. they overall have a very natural sound to them.  I highly recommend them especially if you're pressed for space or tired of moving large heavy floor standing speakers around.

I've heard that they require a very long break-in period in which they keep improving and smoothing out over time, so let them play!
