I've had thirteen of them. There were seven parked outside at one time.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

We all know that Rogers made a new LS3/5a, the 60th Anniversary model, built by Stirling Broadcast.
A fine speaker...
Stirling have found a niche in the market.
I bought a pair of 'LS3/5a type ' speakers from a AOS member.
They were MS88s.
I really liked them.
Rogers have now made a 65th Anniversary model which is built in the Far East.
An LS3/5a Far East enthusiast, Jo Ki, has a pair a really likes them.
Jo is one of the few Far East LS3/5a Collectors whose opinions I take note of.
Other LS3/5a collectors in the Far East just seem to be collectors.
People who are completists and have to have every model available in their
collections.
A little strange.
I recently heard a pair of LS3/5a which were built in the Far East.
I am used to my '93 Rogers 11 ohm LS3/5as and these overseas models
certainly sounded excellent.
I was surprised how good they were, but I supposed I shouldn't have been.
UK LS3/5a enthusiasts will, presumably, will still prefer new LS3/5as
by Falcon Acoustics of Stirling Broadcast.
It's an interesting World...
