Model Three

Spending $20k on a system built around KLH Model Three's is something, I'll give you that. Calling it a "balanced" system is taking the absurdity to another level.

FWIW the Lintons fit perfectly on KLH Model Three stands. I didn’t care for the official Linton stands either.

Klh model threes. They are an old school design based on the famous ones back in the day when they were first released. They are a suspension design. The woofers are paper material which gives them a nice tone.

I’ve owned the KLH Model 3’s for three years and can add some thoughts here:- For all the accolades given the Model 5, the 3’s are amazing. The sealed box makes positioning and sub integration much easier.- On matching equipment, they need power but not gobs of it. I started with an Arcam SA20 and t

I have KLH model Threes, which are like 88db sensitivity, and 6 ohms. I'm driving them with 80 watts (into 8 ohms) from a Rotel a14mkII.

Get both if you can

I also have a WIIM pro plus which would be great with the The Fives but spend the extra for the Sevens I liked their sound in the stores listening room more than

The KLH Model 5’s have gotten a lot of love here and on YouTube and rightfully so. I’ve had the Model 3’s with an SVS SB2000 Pro for a few years now and they are amazing. They were great with my Arcam SA20 and now even better with the Musical Fidelity M6Si. Please give your Model 3’s time to break i

Hey there! Looks very similar to what I had in NYC years ago, lovely space. The right corner is problematic both for speaker placement and for acoustics. No matter which speakers you choose, you will need bass traps in that corner. A GIK Acoustics Turbotrap in pretty much any fabric color you want w
