Audiovector R3 Signature Review - HiFi + Highly Commended

HI-FI + (UK) AUDIOVECTOR R 3 SIGNATUREHI-FI+, DECEMBER 2020 HI-FI+ 2020 HIGHLY COMMENDED AWARDAudiovector R 3 Signature “The R 3’s tonal balance is just about spot-on, too. The treble isn’t too soft or too aggressive, the mid-range disappears nicely, and the bass is deep and controlled without sounding too dry or too fat. Of course, there is room for growth here, thanks to the upgrade path. But primarily, the sound of the loudspeakers is both tonally accurate and perfectly pitched for the sort of moderate-sized listening spaces often found in UK, European, and Asian homes.“ “The R 3 Signature is...

While we were huge fans of the SR3 models the new R3 Arrete is simply sensational. Like the R1 series the new ribbon tweeter is derived from the £50,000 R8 loudspeaker and other improvements include new midrange drivers, upgraded crossovers and the ability to add the new Freedom grounding cables.

Staff Review: David's first impression of the Audiovector R1

Most of you will be well aware that we are big fans of the Danish Audiovector speakers and the SR 1 and 3 ranges were very popular. These models have now been followed by the new R series speakers and we have just received the R1 and R3 Arrete speakers and also the new Freedom grounding cables ( these are only sold with the Arrete models). While I loved the SR1 range and especially the SR1 Arrete which is the top model in the range I have to say that my initial impressions of the new R 1 speakers are extremely...
