Title: Speakers
Post by: CIAudio on 17 Apr 2019, 02:30 pm
Not a CIAudio product, but my partner (Dan Wiggins) & I designed and manufactured a line of loudspeakers for LSA (Living Sounds Audio).
They were unveiled at Axpona and everyone loved them.

All models use custom drivers we designed specifically for LSA using patented XBL motors.
The Signature models are matte Rosewood finish, 4th order crossovers, and coated textile dome tweeter.
Statement models are finished in high gloss Rosewood with 8th order crossovers/premium parts, and beryllium copper dome tweeter.

These speakers produce rich, dynamic, smooth music playback with amazing imaging and space.
On top of that, all models (even the 6" 2-ways) produce deep extended bass. The floorstanders have an in room f3 of around 25hz, standmounts have an f3 around 35hz.

If you're looking for some loudspeakers... these will out-perform anything near their price range.

Here are some links to Axpona comments.

Very cool!  Look forward to hearing them at some point. 


Now I just need you guys to sell some drivers (subwoofers) so I can make some subs!   :P

I have a 24" woofer in a prototype folded 10' open baffle cabinet if you're interested  8).
The total cabinet size is 30" x 30" x 30".

Thanks, I don't have that much real estate.  I'm sure someone would love it though.  AVS Forum is your friend for something like that.

Definitely need some space, although 30" cube is about as small as you can get with a 24" driver.
They are big but have massive output!
