LS3/5A
Closed Type Monitor Loudspeaker
LS3/5A In Brief
The LS3/5A was originally designed for listening
places where space was limited, like mobile
control rooms for television. The goal was a linear frequency response down to 100Hz with
an excellent sound quality.
Due to the closed type cabinet, the LS3/5A
convinces with its clear and fast playback.
As the speaker was designed to be used for
studio applications, the midrange is extremely
detailed and realistic. The sound stage and
imaging of vocals and instruments is truly extraordinary.
The LS3/5A works best in a near/mid-eld listening distance between two and four meters
away from the listener.

Not only for professional use
Over the years, the LS3/5A became an industry
standard for music studios, especially for classical recordings. It also quickly gained interest in
the audiophile sector. Due to the small size, the
LS3/5A is the perfect t for small living rooms.
Do not get fooled by the size: The speaker surprises with a lot of low end information. Due to
the closed type design, the bass is quick and
perfectly dened, compared to a bass reex
speaker.
The LS3/5A was produced by several speaker
manufacturers over many decades already.
The Musical Fidelity A1 was always the perfect
partner with its Class A amplication. The result
was an astonishing clear, detailed and warm
sound stage.
The Musical Fidelity LS3/5A was manufactured
according to the BBC R&D design 1976/29.
