Symdex speakers any information on these?


Would like copy of manual or reviews ,any information on these speakers picked up a pair great sounding speakers!
cleverly
Symdex was not in business very long, the Sigma loudspeaker was the main product, though they also built another two way and a subwoofer. The designer, in his first design job I believe, was none other than the great Kevin Voecks. Voecks went on to design for Mirage using the Canadian Research facility, with Floyd Toole, and then went on to design for Snell, after Peter Snell passed away so tragically. Currently, he designs the Revel line for Madrigal.

The Sigma was a very fast two way. There was a review in The Audio Critic sometime in the early 80s.
Cleverly,

Viridian is correct that Symdex was started by Kevin Voecks,however he sold the company to Leland Wallace. Leland brought out a 3 way speaker called the Symdex Epsilon, and later the Epsilon Signature. He also produced a newer 2 way called the Gamma. The last I knew Leland does many custom designs for Stereo and home theatre.

You used to be able to get in touch with him at INFO@SYMDEX.COM. I still own a pair of the original Epsilons.
Jkw, thanks for the correction. Did the Sigma use transmission line bass loading of a type? Memory fails.

All of the info posted by JKW1 is correct. I sold the line through the mid-90's and still own 2 pairs of their speakers, Epsilons and Gammas, both of which have, or have had, damaged drivers. I once knew Lee Wallace and thought that, due to our relationship in the past, I would hear from him, but have had ZERO luck contacting him. This has been a huge disappointment 'cause, as mentioned above, these are marvelous speakers.
Viridian,

My memory is always failing me. I think the Sigma was a sealed enclosure, I heard it at a shop called HI C audio in Leesburg Va. back in the early 80's. I thought it sounded very nice even without the omega sub, ended up buying the original epsilon which was a updated version of the sigma/omega combo in a single 3 way speaker which reminded you of a Vandersteen in appearence. Take care!
