Audio Physic Classic 3 Bookshelf Speakers
Classic 3 uses the same custom-designed drivers as its larger sibling Classic 8: The powerful midwoofer features a cone made from woven glass fibre, combining low weight with high internal damping. Sound-disrupting partial oscillations of the cone are thereby effectively prevented. The fixed phase plug reduces compression effects in the crucial mid-range and plays an important part in cooling the substantial magnetic motor during operation.
The tweeter excels with a silk dome and resides in a small horn-shaped indentation to subtly adjust the sound radiation behavior around the crossover frequency between mid and high frequencies. This way, the spatial image remains wide, balanced and precise, even if the listener is seated somewhat outside the so-called sweet spot. The Classic 3βs crossover network has also been designed with no holds barred β like the Classic 8, it uses a direct-wired crossover network with audiophile-grade components instead of an inferior circuit board design more commonly found in a speaker of this size and prize.
Build quality is also what you would expect from a speaker bearing the Audio Physic marque, with a solid cabinet build to the highest standards of craftsmanship. The baffle has been kept as slim as possible, reducing the bookshelf speakerβs visual impact and, more importantly, minimizing unwanted reflection and diffraction issues around the drivers.
