    Default Difference between Spendor S3 and S3/5R

    The title says it. Is the Spendor S3/5R a version of the Spendor S3, or are just the same?

    Spendor S3 is no longer made and the S3/5R is a different speaker.

    You now have the A1 and the S3/5R2.

    Thanks Dave, the S3/5R is based on the LSA's right?

    Well, like all the latest "LS3/5A clones", it is nothing like the LS3/5A. They all have different cabinets, crossovers and drivers to the original - the only similarity is the size. They might be better than the LS3/5A or worse but they are not an LS3/5A.

    The S3/5R2 is Spendors take on a BBC mini monitor.
