PROAC TABLETTE 2000 VS SPENDOR S3/5

Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Ok, I now have both of these speakers in house and can make some comparisons. The Spendor is lighter and has a much airier, open sound.It also is able to dissapper better. The ProAc has a much, much deeper bottom than the Spendor. The ProAc's tweeter is different from the Spendor's. The ProAc has a very viberant, forward quality to it. I would say the ProAc's tweeter sounds "silky". The Spendor goes a long way toward not sounding like a speaker at all. The ProAc sounds like a very high quality speaker. I'm not sure if this is a good discreption but if you are chasing a stereo that gets out of the way and just leaves the music, you would probably want the Spendor. If your the type of audiophile who likes a refined, high quality "stereo", you might find the ProAc more your thing. Both of these speakers are of excellent quality. As far as fit & finish, both are very nice with the edge going to the ProAc. The wood on the ProAc is so smooth, it feels like marble. The Spendor has more of a craftmans look and feel to it. Both are very, very well made.I'd have to say, at this point, I think I prefer the ProAc. It's fuller range and forward presentation really appeals to me. It makes the music "light up". Both are exceptional speakers.
