Acoustic Research 3






I have quite lucky to be able to find a nice pair of the classic AR3 speakers in excellent condition!
The AR3 were produced from 1957 - 69 using 12 inch woofer, 2 inch mid cone and 1.375inch tweeter. All the 3 cones were alnico magnets. The selling price for the AR3 were US$216 while the AR1 (1954-1962) were selling at US$185.
The desire for a more "complete" speakers grew as a result of shifting my Tannoy back to Singapore. With these speakers, I should be able to play more "Pow Pang" music!
