<p>This is for a pair of Klipsch Heresy speakers made in 1980. The serial numbers are consecutive. I have owned this pair for about ten years and most of that time they were powered by a 17 watt per channel amp, and later, a 12 watt per channel amp. Average wear; please see pics for details. I have had one last listen and they sound great with no issues. I've provided a set shipping cost of $75 for UPS ground shipping of both speakers. They'll be lovingly packed in separate boxes to insure they arrive safely.</p>

<p>Presented for auction 1 matching pair of vintage 1979 BBC Rogers British High Fidelity LS3 / 5A wood finish speaker monitors in excellent condition. Manufactured by Swisstone Electronics in London in 1979. The wood finish has only several very minor surface scratches at all, these are NOT banged up and tattered speakers as are others I have seen offered for sale . They were gently used only rarely, mostly they were kept in storage for 20+ years. Serial numbers hand signed on the back of each speaker label read as: 508599A and 508599B Each speaker weighs 11.2 lbs. and measures approx: 12"high 7.5" wide, 6.5"deep Manufacturers labels on the back of each speaker read: Rogers LS 3/5 A Monitor British High Fidelity nominal impedance 15 OHMS handling capacity 25 watts Speech &amp; Music Serial Numbers 508599A and 508599B Manufactured by Swisstone Electronics LTD., London England [ see photos of speakers labels ] Nominal Impedance 15 Ohms / Handling capacity 25 watts speech and music ====== We hooked up the speakers last year and listened to favorite CDs on them and they are superb sound quality, like new. These are very rare and sought after speakers of UK manufacture and are highly collectible, appreciating in value with each year. I only found one other pair like these for auction on Ebay, presently bidding at approx $2500.00 with the auction still going. Insurance Required ! History: Cited from the Rogers British High Fidelity website .... Rogers Monitors 25 Ohms Speakers Model LS3/5, background: This UK loudspeaker manufacturer has a 50 year history and Rogers monitors are still used by many broadcasting systems around the world — and for good reasons, as we shall see. For a couple of decades, the LS3/5a under review has been universally accepted as the reference for mini monitors. It all began when Jim Rogers established the company in 1947. His designs quickly established a reputation for combining technical competence with rich and warm natural sound and, in the process, set a precedent for British audio worldwide. Rogers established what became known as "the British sound" here in North America. In the early seventies, Rogers was commissioned by the BBC to produce the industry-renowned LS3/5a and to date, over 50,000 pairs have been manufactured. Other collaborations followed, creating a range of products that have become standard equipment in recording studios around the world. Little has changed over the years when it comes to the LS3/5a. Appearance: The main speakers are 12 inches high, 7.5 inches wide and 6.75 inches deep and weigh 12 pounds each. The matching bass cabinets offer identical footprints and stand 23.5 inches high including the (included) bases. These bases hold the bass enclosures and "spike" them to the floor. Although there are connecting screws to bolt the enclosures together, we used Blue Tack between the enclosures to stack the two cabinets without implanting cabinet resonances to the assembly. When the bass enclosure and the main loudspeakers are stacked together, they stand 35.5 inches high and offer the appearance of small "towers" with tiny footprints — mini-monitors which can be placed in the smallest of rooms. Technology: The LS3/5a is a two-way air suspension system operating in a damped, braced birch cabinet which reduces resonances and optimizes conditions for the drivers. The bass/midrange driver is a 5 inch Kef B110. The tweeter is a KEF T27 1.5 inch unit. Both are computer selected and graded. The crossover is also made by KEF — the BBC FL 6/38~2128 — a 26 elements computer-tested network. Frequency response is quoted from 70Hz to 20KHz (+/- 3dB). Few manufacturers list distortion figures as they tend to be quite high with most loudspeakers. However, there are impressive specs for the LS3/5a — less than 3% (2nd and 3rd) harmonic distortion at 90dB S.P.L (from 65Hz~20KHz). An unusually high impedance of 11 ohms is quoted for the LS3/5a. The sensitivity is 82.5dB S.P.L with max. output at 2m of 95dB. Rogers recommends amplifiers rated from 25 to 100 watts. However, we found that amps rated from 50 to over 100 watts/channel do better justice to these monitors. The subwoofer, the AB1, is a passive sub-bass, designed specifically to augment the performance of the LS3/5a and is sold in pairs. The cabinet is constructed with customary care, featuring 18mm damped medite. A single midrange/woofer covers the frequencies from 55 to 120Hz (+/- 3dB). Divided by a second-order crossover at 120Hz, the system impedance is 8 ohms nominal, with a sensitivity rating of 82dB. The entire system can be connected with single wiring or, if you choose, bi-wiring. The Sound: We connected the Rogers to a Polyfusion 960 amplifier at 200 watts, a Bryston 8B strapped to deliver 400 watts, a Copland amplifier rated at 100 watts and the integrated amplifier from Audio Refinement rated at 50 watts. A Copland CD player and an Alchemist CD/DAC served as source components. Interconnects and speaker cables were by Straightwire and Nordost Flatline. Our auditioning material ranged from blues to classical music to determine the Rogers' ability to handle different program material. The Rogers sounded best with the Polyfusion amplifier, followed closely by the Bryston, the Audio Refinement and the Copland. However, the LS3/5a's personality came through with all amps. Indeed, the sonic character can be described as uniquely Rogers. The LS3/5as deliver refined and sophisticated high frequency information in line with the best and most expensive loudspeakers to which we have listened. With all musical material, these speakers sparked our panelists' recognition of smooth sound and total absence of irritating properties. This attribute continued in the midrange regions and manifested itself as an effortless and balanced flow of musical data. Sometimes, this distinction often results in slight masking of important inner detail; but not with the LS3/5a. It is difficult to explain that "smoothness" of sound doesn't always represent accuracy, but rather, it should describe an attribute. When this attribute (smoothness) is coupled with a loudspeaker's revealing quality (there aren't a lot of loudspeakers that can handle this combination) the results are stunning. The Rogers offer sophisticated sound, as well as enlightening inner details information under all kinds of conditions. Bass information is robust down to the specified 55Hz. There is enough energy below 55Hz, but definition is limited. Resolving deep bass (an organ's pedal notes for example) can't be achieved in its entirety with the sub and satellite speakers. However, there is enough determination in the bass that the missing resolution doesn't distract from the Rogers' outstanding musical presentation. Then there is the imagery. The LS3/5as render an outstanding multi-dimensional image with well defined boundaries, excellent focus on instrument and voices and exemplary front-to-back layering. It's possible to count the rows of musicians when listening to large orchestration. There is only one thing the Rogers can't or won't do — they'll not sound great with heavy metal or rap music. Synopsis &amp; Commentary: The LS3/5as' original design set a benchmark and, according to our Editor, were the model for what developed into the British sound perpetuated by firms like Spendor, Kef, Celestion and many other British manufacturers. In the mid seventies, most of the better retailers offered a good mix of the American east and west coast sound. East coast included the Advents, Acoustic Research, KLH and later on EPI. The west coast sound was best represented by firms such as JBL and Altec Lansing. The British sound, however, was always regarded as the most sophisticated and the leading hi-end loudspeakers from England invariably included the Rogers brand. Over the years, the LS3/5a has been updated, resulting in better all-round definition, better resolving caliber and, with the help of the AB1 subwoofer, richer, more full-bodied sound. One of our panelists said that the sound of the LS3/5as was exactly what he had been looking for. He bought a pair and connected them to his Celeste amplifier which seems to be a match made in audio heaven. We suggest that you audition these fine British loudspeakers with upscale electronics — solid state or vacuum tube rated at about 50 watts — to get the best results. Use upscale cables and good quality source components and listen to these babies sing.</p>

<p>806-8A serial 1354 tested 6.8-7.4 ohms 806-8A serial 1351 tested 6.9 ohms 416-8Z serial 5003030767 tested 6.9 ohms 416-8Z serial 5003030767 tested 7.2 ohms Each 806-8A contains its original diaphragms Each 416-8Z woofer has cones NO. 21184-3 There is a scratch on the top on one of the cabinets please see last picture. Although this scratch exists these speakers sound and look great. There are two small chips along the very bottom of the cabinets but so small difficult to photograph. I am the second owner of these awesome speakers and I know that the original owner sanded the tops and stained them to look original. No other modification have been done these are in otherwise original unmodified condition. Only selling to make room for the other two pair of these that I have. I will ship these via UPS and their professional packing and shipping to either coasts estimates to be $500.00 however I will refund any difference if any overpayment and will pay any overages. Our terms are the terms of Ebay and Paypal so no more rules here. Payments made through Paypal only. No Returns, No Refunds other than the Ebay Terms. I can't warranty vintage gear but these are playing music as I create this listing and sound fantastic. I will be listing the Sansui CA/BA 2000 pre/power amps and Thorens Turntable as well so watch for those items soon. Enjoy the music</p>
