I don't know the specific speakers you are listening to but in the 1990's I owned a pair of Reference 3A speakers. Master Control MMC if I remember correctly. Marvelous speakers, they sat on Sound Anchor stands. I traded a pair of Acoustat Spectra 22's for them. The Acoustats were still my favorites but the Reference 3A's were wonderful. Owned them for a long time.

Hi everyone. I've been in this hobby for more than 40 yrs and have heard and owned a wide range of gear. A recent purchase of the above speakers prompted me to post my first discussion topic. I am simply shocked at how good these speakers sound. Colorful, clear, dynamic, open, even handed, vivid and alive but not fatiguing. transparent-you name it. Essentially, I find no fault with them. The beryllium tweeter is amazing. They work with various electronics and minimal fuss. Some might want a sub but in a copacetic room I would say its optional. I wont belabor the point further but to anyone who gas been frustrated with this hobby, especially speakers do yourself a favor and search these out.
