Up for sale are my JPW AP3 Speaker , presented in near immaculate condition with filled Atacama SL400 stands

The AP3s utilise similar drivers and tweeters as can be found in Snell/Audio Note speakers. Hence these speakers glow with some valve amplification, with some re-working of the crossover they can be made even better . I've had many speakers come and go trying to replace these, however I now have had the chance to own some JPW Ruby 3 speakers. These along with my Leemas mean I have too many speakers, these have to go!

These speakers have had new drivers fitted by Puresound, there is no foam rot issues here.

Please see photos attached, they're in great order.

Asking £140 inc the stands
Would obviously prefer collection but i could possibly meet / arrange delivery .

These are the same speakers as in this thread.

Cracking speakers these :thumbsup: I could only have them hard up against the rear wall & they do like a little bit of room behind them... A new pair of bass drivers costs around £130 making these a complete bargain !

Good luck with the sale :)

I'd love these but I can't give them the room they need to breath :(

:thumbsup: Glad they stayed in the SW ! Adrian dropped them off to me in Falmouth when I bought them... He must be getting fed up of couriering speakers :lol:

I refoamed my new [to me] pair yesterday, do sound rather spiffing dont they ?

All very spooky, you and me enjoying these great speakers :eyebrows:

Must admit I was a tad wary about the JPWs overwhelming my tiny listening room with bass, but the moment they were connected up I knew they were rather special :eyebrows: Plonked James Newton Howard and Friends CD in the player and the bass transients are truly amazing with real attack and dynamics. Infinite baffle boxes rule! :stalks:

Agreed... Bit of a bargain I'd say ! When I last had them my room was just awful & anything bigger than a mini monitor sounded boomy [Rega Ela's had perfect bass!] I've since moved so I can finally appreciate what these AP3's do :cool:

After toying with the idea I'm now definitely going to be building Snell K crossovers to replace the stock JPW one's over Christmas which should be quite an upgrade :eyebrows: I'll do a thread when the time comes if it interests you ?
