LXstudio Linkwitz® Lab Speaker Kit, PAIR
All drivers, LXmini wood parts, and V-frame woofer enclosures are available
The LXstudio is a DIY kit offering by world renowned loudspeaker designer Siegfried Linkwitz. Please visit the Linkwitz Lab website for more detailed information.
It is a 3-way, 4-driver per channel, loudspeaker that combines the LXmini with the dipole subwoofers of the LX521. The miniDSP Flex Eight (purchase directly through miniDSP) provides the signal processing, and can also be used as a pre-amp. 8 channels of amplification are used in a typical setup - 1 channel for each driver. 6 channels are also possible, provided 2 of them are 2 ohm stable to drive the subwoofers in parallel.
A key benefit to the LXstudio is peak performance capabilities in nearly any room setup. Additionally, they are a true full range speaker, effortlessley covering the 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range with excellent clarity and dynamism.
"LXstudio is a speaker that is on par with the LX521.4 in terms of clarity, imaging, dynamics and disappearance, albeit at somewhat lower maximum sound levels. It is more flexible in room placement, providing precise and enjoyable rendering of stereo recordings." - SL
Price shown includes a 10% discount all drivers.
We also offer all of the wood parts to assemble both the LXmini and subwoofer sections.
