I use to be a high end dealer. Sold all the classic speakers. I always went back to Rogers. I just like the sound. There is no best speaker. It may take you a long time but keep the pair you like the best. I found a pair of speakers made by a fellow in California that sound a little better and cover the lower midrange and base better than the LS3/5a. They are also more sturdy. They were called Speaker Art when I became a dealer for them. I like these and have a pair today. They cost about $4,000 a pair but well worth it. He makes a speaker today similar looking that has had some good press. If someone is interested I could do some research and find out current info on the company. I sold a lot of expensive speakers in my day as a dealer but always found the best speaker to be the one you keep coming back too. It may not be what others like and may not be all that expensive but if it sounds good to you, stay with it. Terry
