Mark Knoop and Philip Thomas playing Cage's Two2 is absolutely mesmerizing!

Sorry if the picture quality is low, I'm waiting for the seller to send me some more. Just wondering if the badges pictured below are original badges for Rogers LS3/5a? I've only see the badges that mention LS3/5a on them from Ebay listings which makes me question if they were replaced at some...

This was very helpful thank you very much, I always appreciate comparisons to the 57s as it gives me some real frame of reference. If you want to give the speakers a work out here is an excellent performance of Schubert's D959 sonata in reference level recorded sound, it has very wide dynamic...

How are they with solo piano classical music in comparison to the ESL57?

Main ways they are saving money are using the silver badge crossovers and only offering it in black ash, ie no costly veneer. But it is still birch like all BBC spec and not some cheaper material like MDF. Basically they are identical to the old Falcons, the ones that came before the gold badge...

For North American market only - Falcon will be building them with the silver badge crossovers and black ash birch cabinets. Direct internet sales. As for the information on them using silver badge crossovers, Mofi replied verifying as much in a Youtube review...

Bartok String Quartets 4-6, Vegh Quartet. Stereo cycle.

Andrea Lucchesini playing Beethoven's Op 101 sonata. For several years now this has remained the best Beethoven Piano Sonata cycle I have heard for performances.

I will probably be moving house in a year or so and I will be doing it by truck, so they will not be shipped but I would still like to have some boxes that stand up well to being moved. Any suggestions for this? I imagine having some custom wood crates built would be very expensive?

Very odd that Ebay would have a marketplace which would eat into their own fees from listing buy it now or auctions?

Round trip driving about 650 miles is the longest I've done. Did it in a single day, it was for a Loricraft record cleaning machine the seller didn't want to ship since he didn't have the original packaging.

La Gaia Scienza playing Schubert's Notturno and Piano Trio 2

Well I've now spent these few weeks searching to see how their after sales support is. I get the impression they are willing to let users do their own if they are capable of it like replacing modules? I get the feeling this company isn't snobbish "old guard" hifi company that rigidly forces you...

Yes, I can't stop thinking about the sound of them. I really have not been this taken by a piece of hifi since the ESL57 and the first time I heard Sennheiser HE90 headphones.

Alice Sara Ott playing Chopin's Waltzes, DG CD. First rate performances.
