LXstudio
|
The LXstudio was
designed to render sound recordings with clarity, neutrality and with
detailed, 3D-like imaging, when properly set up. The speakers will
reveal what is in a recording, but never add unpleasantness.
The LXstudio is 3-way loudspeaker that combines the
LXmini with two LXsub4 dipole subwoofers, which have 10 dB higher output capability
than can be obtained from the LXmini+2 configuration. A 10 dB increase is
perceptually significant due to the ear's very nonlinear hearing
sensitivity to the lowest frequencies. With an LR2 crossover at a low 60 Hz the woofers can be placed against the side
walls of a room and the LXmini used as near-field monitors. Path length
differences to the listener can be compensated for in the DSP unit. Dipole
woofers have the advantage of less room mode excitation, which matters even in a
highly damped recording/mixing studio.
The LXstudio can
be built DIY from a Kit for around $2400, including a miniDSP 4x10HD equalizer/crossover.
Additionally, 6 power
amplifiers in the 50 W to 200 W range are needed. The
frequency range extends from 25 Hz to 20 kHz. The horizontal and vertical
off-axis frequency response, which is heard via the room, is spectrally neutral.
Thus, listening off-axis merely changes the viewing angle to the phantom
acoustic scene rendered by the seemingly absent loudspeakers.
The LXstudio was designed for a mixing
studio application (symphonic music), where the conventional large box monitor
loudspeakers gave uneven response, especially at low frequencies, despite the
studio being highly damped and relatively large.
The LXstudio performs sonically like the
LX521.4, and comes close to the full-range dipole's ultimate refinement of sound
presentation. ---- SL - 8/16
