Are they seen that often outside BBC control rooms and similar places?..

I have a pair. They came in kit form and were only available to BBC
staff. I was a "pre university trainee" at Research Dept at the time. I
think only a couple of hundred were ever made to that specification.

there were at least 3 firms which had the licence to build LS3/5As. At
least one firm was founded by a former BBC Research engineer. This probably
explains the "kit" version which I hadn't come across before even though
working in TV Centre at the time they were developed.
