One other speaker manufacturer that makes a model called the LS3/5a is ROGERS.
I've listened to them (and I used to own a pair of LS6as), and I must say that
I like them a lot.  I don't remember hearing anomalies above 15 kHz (I thought
they were for mobile monitoring applications, and I think most people can hear 
to 16 kHz), and I don't remember hearing any low-end boominess (they really 
don't go very low, about 80 Hz or so).  What they do reproduce is quite
stupendous, I think (good tonal balance, imaging?).  It figures that ROGERS is
often forgotten.  Their advertising and design styles are very low-key, although
I hear that they have finally come out with an intriguing-looking floor-
standing model.
