Rogers PM510 S3 Loudspeakers
ROGERS PM510 S3 LOUDSPEAKERS LAUNCHED
British HiFi brand Rogers has announced the new Rogers PM510 S3 loudspeakers, positioned as a flagship model in its current range.
The Rogers PM510 S3 design builds on the company’s long-standing loudspeaker development and is presented as its most advanced system to date.
ROGERS PM510 S3 LOUDSPEAKERS HERITAGE
The PM510 S3 is based on the original PM510 from the 1980s, itself a passive version of the BBC LS5/8 Grade One studio monitor. The new model retains the same core drive unit concept, combining a 12-inch woofer with a 34mm soft-dome tweeter, alongside a modernised implementation.
ROGERS PM510 S3 LOUDSPEAKERS
The loudspeakers are handmade in the UK and use a thin-wall cabinet construction derived from the original LS5/8 specification. The enclosure is built from 12mm Baltic birch plywood and finished in real wood veneers, with Amazaque and Olive Ash offered as standard options.
The PM510 S3 features a 305mm woofer and 34mm tweeter integrated via an 18-element crossover with third-order filtering, crossing at 2.6kHz. The design is described as aiming for low colouration and high-definition reproduction, consistent with Rogers’ established engineering approach.
Rogers states that the PM510 S3 is suitable for both professional monitoring and domestic listening environments, particularly in larger rooms. The loudspeaker is designed to deliver full-scale dynamics and is intended for use in dedicated listening spaces.
ROGERS PM510 S3 LOUDSPEAKERS DISTRIBUTION
The PM510 S3 will be available exclusively through selected specialist retailers. Demonstrations will be offered via authorised dealers, and the model will not be sold through online channels, Rogers tells us. Availability is limited.
