This is very helpful! Thank you. Alas, this is what I was thinking too. I might one day build the LX521s, but it seems like it will be more of a later-life project, when I have more time for critical listening. For party I am considering just putting my money toward another pair of La Scalas...

@Burning Sounds: THANK you for this, so much. Yes, I think I anticipate exactly what you are saying w/r/t room texture. I'm on rather stiff carpet here. Could be...a problem. I think the software DSP solution may be the way to go if flexibility with future upgrades is in the cards, but I share...

Ah, that's what it was! OPLUG. I knew there was a group like that because I came across it a couple years ago. Thanks for reconnecting me to it. I am familiar with Dr. Brenner's business and have been intrigued. I confess however that I'm as cost-shy as they get, so if DIY can help me keep the...

Hi! Pardon me for creating a mint-new account for this, but I'm not much of a forum user. I think I'm in the right place with this particular request, however. I have purchased construction plans for the late Linkwitz's flagship speaker design, the LX521.4. I'm sure many of you know about this...
