Castle Acoustics Stirling 3 Floorstanding Loudspeakers Beautiful set of Castles, in really good condition, probably closer to "excellent" than very good. No scratches of damage, but a bit of fading under the covers as shown in the photo. I've had these since new, and have always looked after them. Sound great. Happy to demo them. Condition: Very Good Payment Method: Cash on Pickup Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia By ScottS 0 Comments Secure Ad AUD $500 Date: December 23, 2025Dec 23
Is A$500 the kind of number that makes you move fast? For this model, yes: it looks fair to strong rather than ambitious, and in the Australian market it sits comfortably in “worth a look” territory for a clean pair, especially in excellent condition. I wouldn’t call it a deep bargain without a clear local comp, but it is not priced like a seller is testing the top of the market.
What makes it appealing is the Castle house sound: smooth, well-balanced, and easy to live with, with enough body to suit vocals, jazz, and longer listening sessions. Reviews of the line praise its detail and coherence more than brute force, which is exactly why good examples still attract buyers. At this price, the main upside is getting a respected British floorstander in tidy shape; just make sure both drivers, veneers, and terminals are genuinely clean, because condition is the whole game on older Castles.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Castle Acoustics, a revered British loudspeaker brand, traces its origins to September 3, 1973, when it was founded in the North Yorkshire market town of Skipton by William "Bill" Escott and John Collinson. Both veterans of Wharfedale—and Collinson also of Quad—these engineers established the company in an old woollen mill, drawing its name and logo from the historic Skipton Castle. From the outset, Castle emphasized complete in-house production, crafting drive units, electronic components, and hand-veneered wooden cabinets under one roof, setting it apart in the 1970s hi-fi landscape.
The brand has steadfastly focused on high-fidelity loudspeakers, eschewing diversification into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables. Iconic models like the Howard, Harlech, Durham, Pembroke, and later Knight series exemplify its commitment to premium wood-veneered enclosures, woven carbon-fiber bass drivers, and cutting-edge acoustic engineering. Acquired by the International Audio Group in 2007, Castle has expanded into home cinema while preserving its two-channel heritage.
Positioned as a high-end boutique manufacturer, Castle commands respect among discerning hi-fi enthusiasts for its "no compromise" sonic performance, furniture-grade craftsmanship, and timeless musicality. Award-winning designs, such as the Knight series lauded by Hi-Fi Choice and Hi-Fi World, underscore its enduring appeal in the premium market, blending British tradition with modern innovation.
