LX521.4 is a 4-way loudspeaker, designed as
full-range dipole, for flat on-axis and off-axis response in the horizontal
plane and frontal hemisphere. It requires between 8 to10 power amplifiers of 50
W to 200 W and a miniDSP 4x10HD. The speakers need breathing room of at least 1
m to the nearest large reflecting surfaces and a room with a minimum volume of 65
m3.
The LX521.4 eliminates the passive L&C crossover in
the LX521 top baffle and brings the speaker to its logical completion. Drivers
and baffle design remain unchanged. Equalization and crossovers have been
redesigned from newly taken acoustic measurements for a lower listening
axis.
With its clarity, imaging, high dynamics and
disappearance from one's auditory illusion, the LX521.4 renders a superb
recording probably as good as it gets and delivers a highly enjoyable
experience. I am delighted.
