Battle of the Open Baffles

For outstanding OB performance look up -- better still, listen to -- Linkwitz' LX521

S. Linkwitz (RIP) was one of the legendary engineers in the audio sector (think of the Linkwitz-Riley xover, for example)

I think the Linkwitz full 521.4 system would rival anything available anywhere but they do take a lot of space to sound their best. I have great interest but dont have the floor space available.

I do have a pair of Spatial X5's and for the money they are a sonic bargain.

After hearing some open baffle a friend has, seeing Ron's video on the Caladans, hearing the Caladans at CAP, and talking to Clayton, my pair is on order.  I'm excited to jump into the OB world.  I run KEF, Mission, Elac, and Emotiva speakers now.  This will be a new world/sound for me.

Dust magnet?

For around a grand you can get a great sounding open baffle speaker that uses the Lii 15 in. driver. www.caintuckaudio.com      Randy is a great guy to work with.
