Rogers LS3/5a is 'the reference' speaker


Recently, I have a chance auditioning a pair of Rogers LS3/5a. I found them quite good. But, I am not so sure that they are the best loved reference monitor in the studio. Anyone with a better point of view?

verrrrrrry natural on voice but the new spendor s-3/5 replacement seems to be the natural progression. also the spendor has no midbass hump and should be easier to mate to a sub. theres a review in the absolute sound issue 119/aug-sep'99. the tweeter in the ls3/5a is the kef t27 isnt particularly extended in the very top. i know this, i have two loudspeakers with that driver. the b-100 is the mid/woof,also is in those two spkrs. they were designed in the late or mid 70s. a lot of progress has been made since then and we can benefit form that progress. these spendors are only $900 the pair, i for one have intentions of hearing them and possibly buying them. also i have ls3/5a-s and i really liked them a lot. i wish i still had them instead of the $300 i sold them for. the distrubitors email is qsandd@aol.com. i hope i have shed some light on this subject for you.
