Mine:
Rogers 15 ohms 24 792 ab (year 1985), first owner.
Spendor 11 ohms 13 607/8 (year ?) , second hand.
Spendor 11 ohms 21 693/4 ( year 98 or 99), second owner.
All modified by adding some pieces of tissue or plastics to flatten the response.
A spare pair of B110 sp 1003 of 1980 for the 15 ohms. Was used to test the modifications to do to the crossover to enable the change from one pair of B110 to an older pair.

Hi Shushu, I'm really curious about your tissue tweaks. I know you said it doesn't look nice but it would be great if you could share some pics.
I have a black ash Spendor 11 ohms from 1994 according to the email I received from Spendor.
I also have an ESL57. Also great on mids and vocals.

Me too. Since I do have a spendor as well.
There's a surge of LSs (Rogers more often, the 15 ohms) for sale at ebay in recent weeks. Occasionally harbeths too. Nary a spendor. Rogers made about 60k pairs, Spendor around 22K, and Harbeth about 7k pairs.

Rogers made about 60k pairs, Spendor around 22K, and Harbeth about 7k pairs. My own total of ls3/5a built: around 90 000 pairs (less than 90 000 in fact). Rogers: around 55 k (may be 57, in fact). Spendor: around 11-12 k (Splendor, I think that you are wrong with your 20 k data). |

Shushu read KK's shoot-out in 2004. You'll find the numbers I quoted for spendor mentioned there. Beyond the numbers, what matters really is the music these small speakers do. Right?
