Many listeners consider the Spendor S3/5R Speakers to be the most transparent and truly musical mini-speaker they have ever heard, and the Spendor S3/5 Speakers have won many awards. The latest 'R' type continues to build on the legend.
For over two decades Spendor was licensed to manufacture the legendary LS3/5a BBC mini-monitor loudspeaker. It became an international reference standard.
In 1998 when Spendor learned that manufacture of the LS3/5a drive units was to cease, we decided to develop our own 140mm (5inch) bass-midrange drive unit using modern materials and technology. Combining this with a small 20mm soft dome tweeter, new crossover engineering and a more up-to-date look we created the Spendor S3/5 speakers.
