Hi All

I use a pair of Roger's BBC LS3/5As of 1970s vintage (a left over from my H=
iFi days).  They are small and consequently lack bass.  They are as clinica=
l as my headphones (recently acquired for monitoring in the field; Sennheis=
er HD 25-1 II) and a joy to listen to.

Before writing this post I checked the internet to see if they are still av=
ailable so I could reccommend a purchase.  They apparently are available at=
 about =A3900 or $1400.  I'm really glad I kept them.

It appears they are the most expensive  item (by far) of my recording gear.

For anyone interested, information on these great speakers is here
