Soundwise Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 Further information: For sale is a pair of LS5/9 made by Bestvox. The Quad speakers in pictures have been listed separately and stands are not included. These speakers are brand new and have no marks at all. Compared with the Rogers LS5/9 65th Anniversary edition they are slightly better in my opinion. The top end is not as hot and bottom definition has improved, but the LS5/9 sound is the same. Fit and finish is superb. All the standard design features are there except for the Tygan grill Other slight differences are the mirror image speaker pair and the woofer held by 6 screws instead of 4 Photos: PLEASE READ If you include any reference to pricing whatsoever in this section (excluding RRP), your ad will not be approved If you are advertising multiple items, you must post one bulk price only, or post seperate ads for each item If you don't include photographs of the actual item being sold, your ad will not be approved You understand that a reasonable donation for selling fees is expected upon successful sale of your item - if you have previously sold items and not made a donation, your advertisement may not be approved. 1

Soundwise Posted August 14, 2021 Author Posted August 14, 2021 Bestvox speakers are from Taiwan made by BBC monitor fanatics who also have LS3/5a 11 & 15 ohm, LS5/9, LS3/6 and BBC style stands for each model

The Bestvox is from Guangzhou, the mainland of China, and also made in China. I know the owner/designer of Bestvox, Ping Lee, for many years and I'm pretty sure that Bestvox has nothing to do with Taiwan, it only has authored dealers in Taiwan 2
Soundwise Posted August 19, 2021 Author Posted August 19, 2021 thanks @jupiterzhao for clarifying, not much info on Ping Lee's new LS5/9 except from Taiwan facebook page and numerous Taiwan hifi reviewers and all in Chinese. I did find info about the designer's philosophy on taobao https://translate.google.com.au/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&u=https://www.taobao.com/list/item/580651142299.htm&prev=search&pto=aue I think Ping Lee is an excellent speaker designer and would love to get his version of the LS5/8, will continue this discussion on separate thread dedicated to Bestvox.
