Albert Von Schweikert Has Passed Away


Daemon Von Schweikert just posted a tribute to his dad on their Facebook page.  I believe he was 74-75 years old. Another one of the “greats” has passed on to the “Great Gig In The Sky”. My condolences to his entire family.

I used to run into him at some of the LA/Orange County Audio Society events. Always a pleasure to speak to and immensely knowledgeable about speaker designs. RIP Albert.
I only had some home theater speakers from his NY period. Brilliant planning put a lot of solid design into even his least expensive products. He was proud of every design he released. He will be missed.
A true innovator and perfectionist in the art and science of building exceptional loudspeakers.  This and the fact that he was a kind, generous man that I loved talking to about our passion for exemplary audio reproduction.  I miss him.
