Lyngdorf used Audio Advice Live 2026, held in Raleigh, North Carolina from August 7 to 9, for the North American public debut of the LCR-2 and SB-75. The two wall-oriented products appeared in separate demonstrations: one built around immersive cinema, the other around straightforward two-channel listening.
The LCR-2 is an on-wall loudspeaker derived from the driver platform used in the floorstanding FR-2. It can serve as a centre channel or form all three positions across a matching front stage. Pricing is US$2,999 each, and shipments are scheduled to begin in August.
In the Capital Room, Lyngdorf placed LCR-2s across the front of a Dolby Atmos theatre, with D-60 surrounds, D-5 height channels, and REL subwoofers. An MP-60 2.1 processor and MXA-8400 power amplifier handled processing and drive, while RoomPerfect provided room correction.
The SB-75 takes a different route. It is a 1.68-metre passive stereo soundbar containing distinct left and right channels, with no built-in amplifier or surround decoder. It is intended to work with an external stereo amplifier and is priced at US$5,999, with a mid-August launch planned.
Both products reflect the same design position: serious loudspeaker hardware should be able to live against a wall without becoming visually dominant. The LCR-2 addresses multichannel systems and the SB-75 covers stereo, but neither treats compact installation as a reason to collapse the system into a conventional powered soundbar.
