Roll on the next school term and she is back to work.
Hurrah !

Blimey your wife is still at school? How old is she?

Come on, Alan, you know you should never ask a woman's age.

LS3/5a and Quad 303, I think that late last year you mentioned something about this combination and that when the 303 was designed many speakers were 15 Ohm impedance.

I seem to remember that if one looks at the spec of the 303, it can be seen that distortion levels in to a 15 Ohm load are quite a bit lower than in to an 8 Ohm load.

I have just taken delivery of a pair of Stirling Broadcast MS88 speakers and I will be selling these LS3/5as in the near future.
I was planning to have them checked by Derek Hughes before I advertise them, but if anyone is interested in them
before I do please contact me.

Of course, checking by Derek will have to be reflected in the price...

The cabinet damage to the veneer ( as shown in the pictures ) has been repaired.
The damage on the bottom is not visible anyway.
As for the price,
they will be £430 plus shipping.

Collection is preferred.

I have decided to keep these LS3/5as.
They are rather special to me...

I was listening to Vaughan Williams recently.
His music sounds superb through these little
speakers I built...

I have now bought a pair of Harbeth P3ESRs, so I'm going to sell these LS3/5as.
They have been checked over all all is OK.

I didn't realise the 'mono test' is a useful one to check speaker matching.
Wire one speaker out of phase and play a mono source, or use the Mono. button on your amp.
Bring the speakers together and at about an inch separation the signal should virtually
disappear.
A useful test for any speakers, not just LS3/5as.

Taking into account the checking, I am looking for £480 for these speakers
