What a gentleman SL is! I went over to his house on my lunch break and had a listen with him. Very impressive! I think I have a hard buying decision ahead of me!

+1 on the above. Have the LXminis and they really do disappear, and bass can be complemented with sub setup of choice. Stock config goes a long way though, depending on musical preferences.

Absolutely - I have a pair of LX521, which I am about to upgrade to LX521.4 . His speaker designs are absolutely awesome. They simply disappear acoustically. The LX-mini is much more forgiving of room layout, since it is a monopole and not a dipole. Someone I know has the LX-mini, and came across and we did a shoot out between them and the LX521. The only significant difference was the relative lack of bass on the -mini, which is overcome when paired with the subs. They also sounded more "forward" as compared with the LX521. But still pulled off the disappearing trick. And they are a whole lot cheaper to build than the LX521 by a very long margin. Nelson Pass has done a discrete FET analog crossover for the -mini (see SL's site), circuit boards for this are apparently going to be made available on diyAudio. SL is apparently very happy to let people come over and listen - and since you are local, why not get in touch with him? LX521's in my listening room

I'm happy to chauffeur if needed. Honda Odyssey soccer mom van ftw (ask Jeff and Bryan)

Better than the 009's but a bit less than the 007's? They are aware that the 009's are the efficient ones...? Maybe I'm just high from the glue as I was doing some prototype diaphragms...

Oh, man. This is just pornography.

After years of seeing Siegfried Linkwitz and his awesome creations at burning amp I'm seriously considering setting up a LXmini + 2 setup for my small apartment. http://linkwitzlab.com/LXmini/LXmini+2.htm The prices on both the kits and the pre-built models seem pretty reasonable. SL seems very bright, plus he is a local here in Marin County. I'm thinking of asking him if I can come by his house and have a listen. Does anyone here have any experience with Linkwitz's stuff? Any advice would be much appreciated!

The sws versions seem to have a tiny different mounting hole pattern. I see no other diffs but I could be missing something. I have the sws version.

I was in Wicker Park this weekend and Small Cheval was practically empty, the same food without the wait I think.

can we sneak a flask into this? if i go, i'm looking forward to talking shit about 6-figure rooms that sound truly terrible. i would want to listen to whatever rooms have daedalus set up, always liked them.

And did he save $ on your insurance?

Belated, but I hope you had the most happy of Birthdays!!!
