A combination of AN and Rogers LS 3/5a does not make any sense and Berlin II with Rogers shows clearly difference between SET and push-pull configuration. Nonetheless, while the set Rogers-Rogers plays very well high and middle frequencies referentially, and mid-bass is reach (at least, according to the ear of English traditionalist), AudioNote-Berlin II set plays referentially and emotionally to the full extent of frequencies (the only limit is the size of a room I have a living room with quite big capacity!). I connected Berlin II with extraordinary Audio Note KEGONS Low Gain version monoblocks delivering 22W matched with Audio Note preamplifier M8, the 86dB efficiency of Rogers LS 3/5a that construction is rather adapted to push-pulls, do not really let listeners enjoy the outstanding SET monoblocks signed by Peter Qvortrup of Audio Note. compute the price of repair if necessary).įrom the dc10 website on the rogers speaker 3/5 : You'd have to check if the drive units are in good shape to gauge what your discovery is really worth (i.e. Overall, a marvelous little speaker, objectively limited at both extremes and superseded nowadays by some current offerings - at a hefty premium, however. the sound also resembles some of the old panels. Think of the sonic origins of Harbeths, Spendors, older ATC. Note that the crossover is very complex, and the early models are difficult to drive with an SS commensurate to their size (the ROgers, in particular, are high impedance)- remember, in those times, tube amplification was still preponderant, and it is easy to drive Rogers LS3/5A with a tube amp. There is a cult following which means that many parts (or replacements) are easy to source, if expensive sometimes. For their minimal size they produce outstanding musical results, i.e. The mid range is very clear, and the lack of real lower register is compensated by a bloat, so the result is superbly pleasant. More than one companies manufactured spkrs to the LS3/ 5A design, the Rogers being my favourites. They were supposed to hang from the sides and allow monitoring on site at the time. They were designed around 40 yrs ago, originally intended for use in the BBC's vans. What would you like to know, specifically? Generally speaking these are renowned for the sound quality and versatility.
