cicable
starts the series of super–fidelity crossovers with a version
for the legendary BBC monitor LS3/5a, which is worldwide still
one of the best »mini« loudspeakers.
Historically there were two versions, a 15Ohm and a 11Ohm version.
Both versions provide the ability to adjust the sensitivity
of the units relative to each other for a flat response. The
cicable xover will be machted individually for all versions
of whatever brand [see pxo–information
and the customer–questionnaire
].
How much the cicable xovers improve the sound of the LS3/5a
speakers, show the comments in Paul Whatton's forum [www.ls35a.com],
– Paul is the son of LS3/5a designer Maurice Whatton –
and a first review by Ken Kessler in HiFi–News. Ken Kessler,
well known author in HiFi–News, is a dedicated friend of
the LS3/5a BBC monitor. In the spring he reviewed most of the
different models and brands [LS3/5a
Shoot Out! ].
Just in time for the London HiFi Show he reviewed the cicable
xover in combination with a11Ohm LS3/5a. Here an extract...
»The cicable crossover is an investment and a reversible tweak for someone who already owns LS3/5As and – like the owner of a vintage car professionally converted for lead–free – wants to use them on a daily basis ... It is a perfect product in that it does precisely what it's supposed to do, and the panel unanimously voiced its approval. – If only all after–market »black boxes« were this »good«
So far
so good: Ken and the others of the listening panel are really
exited. The audible perfection on the highest level for just
the price of some of the long list of voodoo – cables,
that's waht makes the heart of any LS3/5a enthusiast beat [see
the complete review with kind permission from Ken as
