You might get lucky on the used marketplace. I bought my Rogers LS3/5A's (11 ohms) from an eBay seller in Lithuania (!!!) for $960 + shipping. At that price how could I resist! They arrived safely intact!
I was literally minutes from purchasing the Special 40's...
...when Shaun on YouTube brought out the MoFi LS3/5a's, I did some research, and now I'm torn. This midrange sound is what I've been seeking ever since I heard a pair of Proac SC1's back in the day. Would I get more of that midrange magic/reality from a LS3/5a ?... and if that's the right choice, should I spend the $3000 on a Gold Badge Falcon?

roberjerman I certainly wouldn't spend thousands for the Falcon's or other versions! Reality check: the Rogers version listed at $450/pair in 1976 - 78! I was tempted then to buy a pair!Reality check: $450 in 1976 is the equivalent of more than $2100 in 2020. |
@cd318 This is the last line in John Atkinsons review of the Harbeth P3ESR. BTW, I happen to agree with him! I love the Harbeth P3ESR. I think it’s the best iteration yet from any manufacturer of the BBC LS3/5A minimonitor concept. This is the full review! https://www.stereophile.com/standloudspeakers/harbeth_p3esr_loudspeaker/index.html |
