Howard Milstein of The Sound Advocate says “Like its much older sibling, the Spendor BC1, the Stirling LS3/6 is a music lovers’ “dream come true” loudspeaker. As such, it is a resounding high-end loudspeaker success and at its asking price is worth its weight in gold!”.

The Absolute Sound reports that our LS3/6 "maintains the near perfect midrange neutrality of its ancestor but adds much greater dynamic capacity and extension".

“The proven Stirling Broadcast LS3/5as is now offered in a V3 version, featuring a new, higher quality crossover, utilising closely-matched air-cored inductors to remove the saturation experienced with ferrite or iron cores. As this crossover brings a price premium the V2 version remains available for the near future.

“The Stirling SB-88 are unbelievably integrated and liquid-playing loudspeakers with excellent timbre and intense midrange reproduction. At the same time clean and neutral with a degree of authenticity and sovereignty that makes [it easy to] forget size and price class” says HIFIStatement magazine (summarized by dealer hifi12a KG)

”lots of natural fiber here and the sound was gorgeous to boot.

After FM Acoustics and Brodmann, this exhibit became our third pick for best sound of the event and proved that big wallets aren't necessary to enjoy good sound.”

Designed by Derek Hughes the AB-2 bass extender provides a much broader, less peaky response than the Rogers AB-1. They are taller than the AB-1 by 48mm and are fully compatible with all versions of the LS3/5a.

The V2 LS3/5a from Stirling Broadcast was awarded Best Loudspeaker under £1000 in the HiFi News 2005 Awards, beating both the Sonus Faber Concertino Domus and Ruark Sabre III.
