Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker


For some time now I have been directing those interested in loudspeaker design to Danny Richie’s GR Research Tech Talk Tuesday videos on YouTube. Here is his latest: an examination of the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker. You may be asking yourself: if Siegfried Linkwitz is the genius he is touted to be, how is it Danny found the Orion to be lacking, and was able to find solutions for it’s failings? I’ll leave that to you to answer. In the meantime, after watching and listening to this video, you may want to watch all the Tech Talk Tuesday videos. They may just make you a more informed loudspeaker consumer.

The lx521 design address all of these concerns.  For the record, I own both the Orion and lx521. There in only a fleeting comparison between the two in that one is clearly a stepping stone to the next.  As are all of Siegfried's designs.  The lx521 is a true magnum opus.  Soundstage can only be compared to the MBL Radialstrahler design but at a non-mortgage investment.  Just my opinion.
