Contrary to popular belief, the Rogers LS3/5 used off-
the-shelf KEF B110 and T27 drivers.

Not quite off-the-shelf as I heard it. The B110s were selected off the

What I meant by "specially designed" is that these drivers were
purpose-built for exceptional performance, and weren't say transistor radio
speakers.
