The EgglestonWorks Andra III SE is a Special Edition loudspeaker that builds upon the iconic Andra lineage, which won Stereophile's Speaker of the Year. It features a refined design with upgraded materials, drivers, crossover networks, and cosmetics. The SE designation marks a suite of improvements including a new paint finishing system, enhanced crossover components, internal wiring, and upgraded binding posts. The speaker balances evolution with preservation of its award-winning sound quality, offering a 3-way, 5-driver system with a single 1" dome tweeter, dual 6" carbon fiber midrange cones, and dual 12" poly cone woofers. It delivers a frequency response from 18Hz to 24kHz (-3dB), an efficiency of 88dB, and a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms (minimum 6 Ohms). The enclosure is carefully constructed with thick walls and internal stuffing for optimal sound. The footprint is 15" wide by 18" deep by 44" high, and the speaker weighs approximately 180 lbs. The Andra III SE is designed to provide exceptional sound quality with a stable load for amplifiers, recommended at a minimum of 80 watts per channel for best performance. It includes custom spikes for floor coupling and is finished with automotive-grade paint for improved aesthetics.
