I keep seeing these old LS3/5a speakers selling on eBay and elsewhere selling for silly money.
All I know is that they were made (a long time ago by the look of them) by various UK speaker manufacturers under licence fromthe BBC.
They look pretty old hat to me. Okay I'm sure they must have some special sonic qualities but are they really worth the money?? (£500 - £1000). Surely loudspeaker technology has moved on a great deal since then. Are they being boughtfor nostalgic reasons or can they really compete with todays speakers in their price range??
