Description

Alpha P3 – Compact Bookshelf

Compact and versatile without sacrificing performance.

The Alpha P3 is a small two-way bookshelf speaker that brings hifi pedigree to your stereo or home theatre system to fill the room with crystal-clear sound. Featuring a custom 4” (102mm) woofer and aluminium dome tweeter that uses a waveguide to perfectly match the low and high frequencies for a smooth transition, the P3 delivers natural sound, at an affordable price. It also leverages specially textured woofer cones and a unique port tube design to add back energy and extend the bass frequencies even lower without any distortion.

  • ¾” (19mm) Black anodized aluminium dome tweeter with front waveguide
  • 4” (102mm) Textured polypropylene woofer with rubber surround
  • Bass reflex cabinet design with a rear-firing port

Hear beautiful texture and detail
All new Alpha Series models employ a ¾” (19mm) black anodized aluminium dome tweeter that extends the high-frequency response beyond the Alpha’s original measurements and minimizes distortion for a rich, balanced listening experience. A waveguide on the front of the tweeter works to perfect on and off-axis performance while smoothing the response for improved resolution and detail. The ferrofluid cooled tweeter on the P3 has also been precision engineered to sit below the woofer to provide precise stereo imaging at any height.

Powerful woofer with dual layer voice coils
At the heart of every good speaker is a great woofer that produces low distortion and high output levels. With the new Alpha Series, the 4” (102mm) woofer employs dual layer voice coils with a very powerful magnet structure and a cone that is made from a special textured polypropylene compound that prevents breakup. With bass reflex loaded through Paul’s original port tube design from the ’70s, the woofer adds back wave energy to extend the bass response and improve efficiency down to 43Hz.

Custom-built and perfected
The Alpha Series’ new crossover wasn’t custom designed to simply just direct low and high frequencies to the woofer and tweeter. It was re-engineered to control the directivity and flatten the frequency response while utilizing an unusually complex Acoustic Linkwitz-Riley filter design that is designed to get a perfect blend between the drivers and keep distortion at its lowest even at high volumes.

Unique modular cabinet design
The P3 has a unique combination of wall thickness and bracing to control resonances and provide a perfect platform for the driver components. The P3 cabinet’s internal damping material was first used in PSB’s most high-end models, and has now been adopted by the Alphas and positioned precisely for optimum effectiveness. A premium woodgrain vinyl finish and chrome front baffle highlights combine with magnetically attached grilles to provide a rich and timeless design.

  • ¾” (19mm) Black anodized aluminium dome tweeter with front waveguide
  • 4” (102mm) Textured polypropylene woofer with rubber surround
  • Bass reflex cabinet design with a rear-firing port
  • Acoustically-transparent detachable magnetic grilles
  • Five-way gold-plated binding post speaker terminals
  • High-quality woodgrain vinyl finish
  • Available in Black Ash or American Walnut

Why Choose PSB

PSB Speakers is a Canadian loudspeaker manufacturer founded by legendary designer Paul Barton, whose work has long focused on combining scientific acoustic research with natural and highly approachable musical performance. Developed alongside extensive listening research conducted through Canada’s National Research Council, PSB products are engineered around the idea that loudspeakers should reproduce music with tonal accuracy, balance, and long-term listenability across real-world listening environments.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, PSB occupies a particularly interesting space within the market because the range combines excellent engineering, practical usability, and strong value while remaining less commonly encountered than many mainstream loudspeaker brands. The result is a lineup that often surprises customers with just how refined, flexible, and musically satisfying the products are at their respective price points.

Signature Design and Sound

PSB products are known for their balanced and easy-to-live-with presentation. Rather than sounding exaggerated or overly analytical, the speakers tend to focus on tonal coherence, natural vocals, controlled bass performance, and broad compatibility across different amplifiers, rooms, and listening styles.

One of the standout areas within the range is the PSB Alpha iQ active streaming speaker system. Incorporating integrated amplification together with the excellent BluOS streaming platform, the Alpha iQ delivers a highly modern and remarkably complete Hi-Fi solution with minimal system complexity. For customers wanting genuine stereo performance without the need for multiple separate components, the Alpha iQ has become one of the most compelling compact streaming systems currently available.

PSB’s AM Series active speakers also offer a highly practical and musically engaging approach to modern desktop and compact Hi-Fi listening. Combining active amplification with strong tonal balance and excellent usability, they work beautifully within home offices, smaller rooms, and lifestyle-oriented listening spaces while still maintaining genuine stereo credibility.

The range also extends into architectural speakers, including in-wall and in-ceiling models designed for discreet distributed audio and home theatre integration, together with heritage-inspired passive speakers such as the Passif 50, which offers a modern interpretation of classic monitor-style loudspeaker design.

PSB Product Range

The PSB range available through HeyNow Hi-Fi includes active streaming loudspeakers, powered desktop speakers, passive loudspeakers, architectural audio solutions, and wireless headphone products designed for both home and travel use.

The Alpha iQ and AM Series in particular represent excellent opportunities for customers seeking high-quality sound with minimal complexity, while the Passif 50 appeals strongly to listeners who appreciate classic loudspeaker proportions and a more traditional stereo presentation.

PSB’s wireless noise-cancelling headphones also remain highly practical for travel, particularly due to their use of replaceable AA battery operation rather than fixed internal rechargeable batteries. For many travellers and long-term owners, this offers a level of convenience and longevity that is becoming increasingly rare within modern portable audio products.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced system setup team provide assistance with streaming integration, speaker matching, architectural audio planning, and complete system optimisation to ensure PSB products perform at their full potential within each customer’s listening environment.
