    Default Harbeth P3ESR

    Tried a pair last year. Nice speakers! They sounded quite pleasant and didn't offend any part of my listening experience. The beauty of P3ESR is that you can listen to them for long periods.

    Pardon my ignorance. Do the P3ESR's have internal bracing?

    I'd put money on it that they don't. Why you want to know?

    I doubt you'd find many speakers that small with internal bracing. A baffle that size wont be flapping around like a bigger, unbraced baffle.

    No internal bracing. Not required as the cabinet is small and they are BBC type designs where the cabinet is allowed to resonate at low frequencies and not in the mid-band.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    I have a pair of black P3-ESRs and would agree that they’re superb speakers.
    I also have a pair of Spendor S3/5Rs, which are excellent speakers.
    Both pairs put the LS3/5a to bed and give musical satisfaction, something lacking in many small modern speakers.
