lc seriesLc SeriesLc4.75F/Lc5.75FLc4.75FLc5.75FLc6.75FNever has the saying good thingscome in small packages been moreappropriate than when referring toWestlake’s smallest loudspeakersthe Lc4.75 and the Lc5.75. Bothof these “mini” wonders pack anamazing punch for their relative sizemaking them an excellent choice forusers seeking high performancefrom compact enclosures. The Lc4.75combines a 4” woofer with a 3/4”soft dome tweeter while the Lc5.75features a 5” long excursion wooferwith a 3/4” soft dome tweeter.Whether being used for main orsurround channels both modelsdeliver performance worthy of theWestlake Audio name.The Lc6.75 has established itself asone of Westlake Audio’s most popular models. By delivering preciseimaging and impressive low frequency response from a small enclosurethis speaker has found popularitywith listeners looking for high-endperformance in a reasonably sizedpackage. The stepped front bafflehelps smooth transient responseand the dual front mounted portsextend the bass response. Thismodel is also available in a shieldedversion for use near video monitors.Lc8.1FThe Lc8.1 is a 2-way system thatoffers the listener the kind ofresponse normally only associatedwith 3-way systems. The cabinetincorporates a design that improvesthe time/phase alignment along withdual front mounted ports for extendedlow frequency response. The Lc8.1’scan be upgraded at any time to a3-way system with the addition ofthe Lc8.1SW subwoofer system.Magnetic shielding is also offered asan option on this model.Lc8.1SWThis stereo subwoofer system isspecifically designed for operationwith the Lc8.1 speakers. Eachenclosure houses dual 10” high performance woofers and a passivehigh level network that is completely tuned and tweaked for operationwith the Lc8.1 speakers. Adding theLc8.1SW will transform the Lc8.1’sinto a fully matched and integrated3-way system that can be bi-wiredor passively bi-amplified. The enclosures also act as pedestal standsfor the Lc8.1satellite speakers positioning them at the proper listeningheight, which in combination with afull speaker muff compliment, conveys system performance as goodor better than single piece systemscosting twice its price.Speaker CablesOur WI and BWI super flexible speakercables provide you with the industrieshighest quality assemblies. High strandcount, silicone insulation and premiumterminations provide outstanding performance and long term durability.Lc265.1FThe Lc265.1 was designed for use as a dedicated center channelspeaker in multi-channel systems. Its unique design incorporating dual6 1/2” woofers with a 5” midrange and a coaxially mounted 1” tweeterprovide for exceptional off axis performance. The Lc265.1 can also beused in 2, 3 and 5 channel configurations and can be positioned eithervertically or horizontally. The passive high level network gives the userthe option of either bi-amping or bi-wiring their system. The system ismagnetically shielded for placement near video monitors.Lc3w10VFThe Lc3w10V is a medium size systemcomprised of a 10” polypropylenewoofer, a 5” midrange and 3/4” softdome tweeter. The system offerswide bandwidth, flat response andhigh output from its small enclosure.Horizontal mirror imaged pairs areavailable for bookshelf applications.Dual inputs to the high level crossovernetwork allows the user the optionof bi-amping or bi-wiring their systemfor optimum performance. A dedicatedmetal speaker stand is available as anoption to provide rigid support andproper listening height.Lc3w12VFThe Lc3w12V is the classic large3-way bookshelf, incorporatingtoday’s technology. The verticalalignment of the 12” woofer, 6 1/2”midrange and 1” dome tweetereliminates the need for dedicatedL/R units. Horizontal applicationshowever will be better served bythe Lc3w12F (not shown) whichincorporates “mirror image” L/Rcabinets. Exceptionally well balancedacross the entire sonic spectrumthe Lc3w12’s are the perfect choicefor main channel speakers in eithertwo or multi-channel systems. Thepassive high level crossover allowsthe user the option of bi-amping orbi-wiring their speakers.

bbsm seriesBBSM SeriesBBSM-4FBBSM-10VNFThe BBSM-10VNF is a floor standing version of the classic BBSM-10monitor. The 3-way system uses dual10” woofers, a 6 1/2” cone midrangeand 1 1/4” soft dome tweeter ina ported enclosure. The NorthAmerican Walnut cabinet featuresextensive internal bracing with proprietary sound dampening materialsthat virtually eliminate any cabinetdistortions.
