Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Spendor loudspeakers different from other British speaker brands?
Spendor was founded by BBC engineers and built its reputation on precision cabinet construction and a natural, uncoloured tonal balance. The focus is musical truth rather than exaggerated bass or treble, which makes Spendor speakers well suited to acoustic jazz, vocal recordings, classical, and modern electronic production alike.
What is the difference between the Spendor A Series, Classic Series, and D Series?
The A Series (A1.2, A2.2, A4.2, A7.2) is Spendor's contemporary stereo and home theatre range, spanning compact standmounts to full floorstanders. The Classic Series (1/2, 2/3, 3/1, 4/5, 100, 100Ti, 200, 200Ti) uses Spendor's traditional cabinet voicing and construction, aimed at listeners who want the brand's reference sound in a more heritage-styled enclosure. The D Series, including the D7.2, is Spendor's flagship floorstanding line for reference two-channel systems.
Which Spendor centre channel speaker should I choose, the DC1 or the AC2?
The DC1 is a 2.5-way centre channel designed to partner with Spendor's DS1 and D7.2 speakers, delivering deep, articulate bass alongside vivid vocal realism for high-performance multi-channel systems. The AC2 is a 2-way centre channel with a low-profile cabinet that fits discreetly into more spaces, pairing easily with any Spendor stereo speaker while still delivering clear, tuneful vocals. Choose the DC1 for a reference-level multi-channel build around the DS1 or D7.2, and the AC2 for a more compact home theatre setup.
What is the Spendor DS1, and how is it different from a standard bookshelf speaker?
The DS1 is a 2-way surface loudspeaker built to be mounted on a wall or surface rather than placed on a stand, making it a flexible option for surround channels or systems where floor and stand space is limited, while still delivering Spendor's signature clarity.
What is the Spendor AW1, and when would I use it?
The AW1 is a surround-specific loudspeaker pair designed for multi-channel home theatre systems, delivering the same tonal consistency as Spendor's stereo speakers so surround channels blend seamlessly with the front soundstage.
Do Spendor Classic Series speakers need stands?
Standmount models in the Classic Series (1/2, 2/3, 4/5) benefit from a dedicated Spendor Classic Stand, which is matched to the cabinet dimensions and helps deliver consistent bass response and imaging. The Classic Stand is available separately in sizes to suit different models in the range.
