Θυμάστε που λέγαμε για τη AV123 και τις τιμές της που χαλάνε την πιάτσα;
Έχουμε review για το μεσαίο ηχείο της ακριβής της σειράς, το LS6.
Θα υπάρχει και σε kit, by the way.




Price: $2,995 per pair


"The LS-6 is a 2-way, 14-driver line source vented enclosure with 8 flared ports around back. They feature 6 customized BG Neo 8 midrange/tweeter panels and 8 custom 6.5” XBL² woofers per speaker. At 68” , they stand almost 6’ tall. They are just over a foot wide, with a cabinet depth of 16.5” and weighing in at close to 150lbs each. These are not tiny speakers and really need a mid to large sized room to breathe and come to life.

The LS-6 is from the mind and hands of Danny Richie of GR Research, and is offered as a kit through GR Research and will be offered as a finished product through the Mark Schifter helmed AV123.com. Anyone familiar with both men knows they are going to put a high value per dollar product on the table, but with this latest series of Line Arrays (the LS-6 and it’s bigger brother the LS-9) they may have exceeded even their own expectations.

Yep, I’m getting to that right out front here, no leaving anyone in suspense. These are really incredible speakers, and not just at the price points they are being sold at. I believe they compete far up out of their price class, and I am having LS-9’s made for my reference speakers, they’re that good. Are there better speakers? I’m sure that argument can be made, no component is perfect, but my experience with the prototype LS-6, and I mean months of experience, leads me to believe they contend very closely with some of the bigger name and bigger price tag speakers out there.

Okay, with my blurting out the end of the story like that, let’s back up a bit to the evolution and design goals of the LS-6…

...

There are tradeoffs between every speaker and component. In some areas some may be a notch better than others, including the LS-6, but for overall performance the LS-6 is right at the top for me. The LS6's are easy to drive and happy with either tubes or solid state. They will easily repond to improvements in your system all the way up the price ladder to the very top, meaning this is a speaker you can keep for a long time while you improve the components around them. The fact that they are available as a kit for those who love woodworking just adds to their value quotient. Add to that the ability to save $10K or better for a fully assembled pair versus comparable sounding speakers and it's a no-brainer, IF your room can handle them."
