Rogers LS5/9 Classic SE reviewed in the April 2022 issue of The Absolute Sound magazine

Here are a few extracts from the in-depth review:

"But the “fit ’n’ finish” (an endearingly quaint term favored by some audio writers) is top-notch. The cabinet is meticulously fabricated from pieces of 9mm Russian birch plywood, the standard veneer finishes being olive and amazique—that last one a beautiful African hardwood."

The Classic SEs will sing when driven by a carefully chosen amplifier that doesn’t cost twice as much as the speakers do. But they will reward an advance in the quality of the power sent their way…”

"These loudspeakers deliver the essential character of a recording honestly, without editorializing, as well as some other far more expensive transducers. Give the Rogers LS5/9 Classic SE a good long listen."
