I'll take this one on, having seen it languish far too long. James12345 20:08, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

    • Note: my responses indented:
  • "as opposed to the "LS5" loudspeaker, intended for studio monitoring" - does "studio monitoring" here mean an indoors studio?
    • yes, proper studio environment
  • "using headphones is unsatisfactory" - is there a straightforward reason for this?
    • none was cited, but then listening through speakers and through headphones isn't the same experience at all.
  • "There were no commercial constraints." - does that mean that they didn't design it to be sold, and so there was no emphasis on "features"?
    • Yes. It was primarily for own use, and the Beeb, being the Beeb, didn't care about cost required to achieve the necessary quality. £100k is quite a large sum of money to be spent on development in the early seventies
  • "built using the" - mention that these are drive units.
    • added.
  • "had initiated tendering" - odd use of past tense - relative to what?

Sorry for the delay in this part of the review. James12345 19:32, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

  • "Its internal walls are heavily damped, only specific speaker..." - already mentioned.
  • "The name was..." - it isn't immediately clear that the name is Rogers.
  • "Spendor's production amounted..." - the other produces could be introduced better.
  • "and became easier to drive" - redundant to decrease in resistance.
  • "matched by computer." - not very precise. "matched to each other by computer testing" or something is a bit clearer.
  • The Legacy section is a bit odd. The source mentions the LS3 a few times, but I don't really see the connection
  • Will this come to anything?
  • Note 1 is a bit confusing. A note on what the year means (first manufactured?) would help.
Sorry for the delay. Looks fine now. Thanks, James12345 21:36, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
