Von Schweikert Audio’s “sonic mission” has always been to develop speakers that can immerse the listener in a sound-field that is highly similar to a live event. One of our “secret ingredients” is that our speakers are designed to project a “bubble” of sound instead of the more common “beam” of sound. This “sound bubble” is vastly more fun to listen to, as the “sweet spot” becomes the entire room!

Von Schweikert Audio’s design team is well known within the industry and is often commissioned to develop new products or refine existing components for other manufacturers. We have consulted on projects for Lucas Film THX, Apple’s IPod components, MTV Studios, The Bazooka Tube automotive subwoofer, Infinity, JBL and Eggleston speaker designs, among many others.

This speaker may be used as either a full range speaker system in a conventional stereo music setup, or as a dedicated dialogue speaker in a Home Theater application. This universal design approach was facilitated by the use of special diaphragm materials providing the highest Clarity Factor available. Our composite woofer cone, fabricated from cellulose acetate pulp impregnated with mica substrate and damped with a carbon fibre/resin polymer,has a very high Young's Modulus, or ratio of weight to rigidity. This permits the woofer/midrange drivers to deliver thundering bass response in combination with breathtaking vocal clarity and intelligibility. In addition, the liquid cooled composite silk/polymer resin dome tweeter can handle the dynamic range and volume levels necessary for thrilling realism without harshness or distortion. To enable the LCR-15 to be used vertically or horizontally, we have designed a GAIN (Global Axis IntegrationNetwork) crossover system that enables the system to achieve flat frequency response neither placement.


Specifications:

• SYSTEM TYPE: Shielded three-way full range dialogue/general purpose speaker system. One woofer is used for bass only, while the second woofer is used for midbass and midrange frequencies. Can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
  
• BASS LOADING: Aperiodic Pressure Release design using 100% stuffing density.Note that the vents are not bass reflex ports, but act as pressure release orifices. Can be placed inside a cabinet.
  
• BASS DRIVERS: 2pc --5.5" heavy- duty bass/mids with cast frame, cellulose acetate pulp cones impregnated with mica substrate and damped with a carbon fibre/resin polymer, Low Distortion Motor system, butyl rubber surrounds, long throw spider, high temperature voice coil and magnetic shielding. This new driver design has a very natural sound quality with inaudible coloration or distortion.
  
• TWEETER: 1" - composite silk/polymer resin dome with Ferrofluid liquid cooling,high temperature voice coil, Low Distortion Motor design, and magnetic shielding. Thistweeter is very musical, without harshness, even at high volume levels that would cause"standard" tweeters to fail.
  
• CROSSOVER: Global Axis Integration Network (synthesised steep-filters with phase-consistent behaviour) with 300 Hz and 2.2 kHz crossover points. This crossover design has been engineered to radiate sound in a wide "bubble" instead of a "beam," so that phase and frequency response does not radically change off-axis. The finest parts have been hand selected, including polypropylene capacitors and premium air core inductors.
  
• BINDING POSTS: High quality "audiophile" five-way binding posts with rhodium plating.
  
• FREQUENCY RESPONSE: Baffled mounting (inside equipment cabinet): 32 Hz-20kHz; (free air: 60 Hz-20 kHz +/- 2dB)
  
• SENSITIVITY: 88 dB @ one watt/one metre anechoic, 91 dB measured in room with boundary gain.
  
• POWER HANDLING: 8 watts min - 200 watts peak.
  
• IMPEDANCE: 8 ohms nominal (7 ohm minimum, 19 ohms maximum). SET friendly!
  
• WEIGHT: 28 lbs packed for shipping, 20 lbs raw.
  
• DIMENSIONS: 17.5" Wide x 10.25" Deep x 7.5" High (horizontally placed).
