Rogers Compact Monitors

Vintage British Design


These quite rare vintage Rogers monitors are tested and in full working order, sounding beautiful with all genres of music - especially piano, jazz and female vocals.


Cosmetic condition is good and solid, with a few little dings and blemishes on the real walnut veneer (see close-up pictures).


The Rogers company was originally founded in 1947 by Jim Rogers and became famous for its BBC designed loudspeakers including the legendary LS3/5A mini monitor.


Specifications:

• Type: two-way, stand or bookshelf mounted sealed-box loudspeaker
• Drive-units: Rogers 25mm fabric-dome tweeter and Rogers 205mm bass/mid woofer
• Nominal impedance: 8 ohms
• Power handling: 40 watts RMS
• Dimensions: 560mm H x 270mm W x 270mm D
• Weight: 9kg each.
• Finishes available: walnut, black ash, rosewood
• Manufacturer: Swisstone Electronics Ltd., 310 Commonside, Mitcham, Surrey, England (1993)


The last picture is from the 1978 Hi-fi Year Book, when these retailed at a little under £180 - a significant price tag in the 1970s
