Graham LS5/9

Years ago I made myself some speakers based on a Kef DIY kit. The guy who sold them to me told me they were BBC monitors. I still have them and although they don't do the extremes they do have a very musical sound to them. Every time I read a review of and old BBC design re-done the explanation of how they sound always makes sense. Certainly worth a try!
There's a few more brands around that do remakes of BBC monitors so it would make sense to shop around.

Let us know how you like them when you get them home.

Cheers,

Pim

Hi Pim!

Well, I heard many of these BBC based speakers including Rogers, Harbeth etc however these Grahams have something more/else than the others I listened to as they blended musical virtues with some wanted HiFi parameters. Still reamins to be driven by the D400 and what signature that may come out of that.
I also heard that Graham will be releasing a LS5/8 modell that also would be interesting specially for the on paper better bass response.

A SAMed LS5/9 could be the answer to my wishes.

I'll try to get a demo from my dealer.

Will let you know my impressions/Mike
