Falcon acoustics ls3/5a gold badge – matched pair – walnut burr te koop: prachtige falcon acoustics ls3/5a gold badge, uitgevoerd in de zeer fraaie en gewilde walnut burr fineer. Het betreft een match
What you should ask yourself is whether paying €2,999 for these is worth stretching well above the local used norm. Against your comparator set, that sits above the €2,328 75th percentile and far over the €1,942 median, so this is an ambitious asking price rather than a fair-market buy.
These are highly regarded monitors for their compact scale, imaging, and the classic LS3/5A midrange balance, so the appeal is real if you want that sound. The upside is strongest only if the pair is exceptionally original, beautifully matched, and complete with proper stands, grilles, or provenance; otherwise, at this price, you should be looking for a more compelling package or waiting for a better-priced example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Falcon Acoustics traces its roots to 1972, when Malcolm Jones, KEF Electronics' first employee from 1961 and its original Chief Design Engineer, founded the company in England as Falcon Electronics. Starting as a modest family venture with his wife Valerie, it began on a kitchen table in Bexhill, Sussex, before relocating to Mulbarton in 1976 and later to Acle in 2003. Jones's deep expertise from KEF shaped Falcon into a key supplier of audio components, including pioneering self-bonded ferrite-cored inductors that fueled numerous hi-fi magazine speaker designs in the 1970s.
The brand focuses primarily on high-performance loudspeakers, with renowned models like the award-winning BBC LS3/5A Gold Badge, the only production version fully meeting the original 1976 BBC specification. Its lineup extends to the R.A.M. series and HP.80, all handcrafted in Oxford, alongside a historical emphasis on supplying drivers, crossovers, and components to manufacturers and enthusiasts across the UK and Europe.
Falcon holds a revered niche as a boutique high-end marque, celebrated for authentic recreations of classic monitor speakers and meticulous engineering. Positioned among Europe's preeminent audio brands, it appeals to discerning collectors and hi-fi purists seeking unparalleled fidelity and heritage-driven excellence.
