3

3 is a particular number. It is pertinent to the Catholic Trilogy. The 3F by John Blue is a particular loudspeaker.

We should be talking about the Hero 1.4, which is amazing, but we already have, so here is the 3.



The 3's are particularly like the NHT Absolute Zero's. How Zen. Their shading is interesting, but we preferred to post them in black, with a gold cross. You'll notice the divots. We admire their use of stands. You'll notice ideal-hi-fi positioning. The size. There's a high ceiling, and most audiophiles can't get it better than this, all in all.



In terms of imagery, it's a bit sacrilegious. Only the four points of the cross beams themselves are highlighted by gold plated hex screws, and it's a sun motif, inside. You'll notice we mentioned the Catholic Trilogy instead of the Trinity. That was because we imagined non-Catholics would be reading, and wanted to be fair. There is also the Korg Trinity, which has some resonance, however in-divine.

The 3S has some resonance as well.





Now to the 3F.

It's the best looking model in the John Blue lineup. The JB 3's are somewhat replicated in a larger cabinet, given a transmission wave design, and a look quite reminiscent of Halcro's DM 88.

You'd have to be careful driving them with this amp, as the max power of the 3F's is 30 watts (6 ohms), and the Halcro's will generate 300W. A Halcro DM10 is then suggested with a set of pre or post resistors to bridge this 10X power capacity issue. You could alternately use the 3, should you not wish stands.
