At €1,700, this unknown-condition Spendor SP2/3 is a strong deal, landing well below the 25th percentile of €1,752 from your recent comparable listings and significantly under the median of €1,820. Even compared to broader market data showing an estimated 2026 median near €2,279, the asking price represents genuine value for these iconic British speakers.
The SP2/3 is a cult favorite for its warm, natural midrange and musicality, driven by an 8” polypropylene woofer and soft-dome tweeter that deliver a smooth, non-fatiguing sound. If the unknown condition turns out to be clean with functional drivers and no foam rot, this is a prime buying opportunity to acquire a well-regarded classic at a bargain entry point. The main caveat is verifying the condition, but the price cushion makes the risk manageable for an enthusiast willing to inspect.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Spendor, a quintessential British hi-fi brand, traces its origins to the late 1960s when BBC sound engineer Spencer Hughes and his wife Dorothy founded the company in Sussex, England—the name itself a clever fusion of "Spen" and "Dor." Drawing on Spencer's expertise alongside co-designer Dudley Harwood, they pioneered the BC1 loudspeaker in 1969, featuring the world's first commercial 8-inch plastic cone driver made from innovative Bextrene material. This breakthrough quickly established Spendor as the monitor of choice for broadcasters, recording studios, and discerning listeners worldwide, setting a benchmark for transparent, natural sound.
The brand focuses exclusively on loudspeakers, designing, engineering, and hand-building every driver, crossover, and cabinet in their Sussex facility. Their lineup spans the accessible A series for mainstream buyers, the premium D series for high-end performance, and the Classic line, which revives iconic designs like the BC1 with modern polymer and Kevlar cones, cast-magnesium chassis, and advanced motor systems. Spendor eschews amplifiers, turntables, or headphones, prioritizing pure speaker innovation rooted in BBC-honed precision.
Today, under owner Philip Swift since 2000, Spendor holds a revered position as a high-end, heritage British marque, blending vintage collector appeal with contemporary excellence. Renowned among audiophiles and professionals for smooth, low-distortion imaging and musicality, it remains a global reference standard, entirely made in the UK to captivate serious hi-fi enthusiasts.
