Dvorak: Typing
built 815 days ago
The Dvorak's dipole behavior diminishes the room's sonic signature and its masking effect upon subtle details in a recording. The dipole delivers more sound towards the listening position and less to the other parts of the room compared to a conventional box type loudspeaker. As a result, only one-third of the acoustic power is available to excite your room's resonances, reflections and reverberation. Therefore, the Dvorak removes one of the most variable and problematic sources of distortion in home audio, the listening environment.

In research supported by NFCR, Dr. Dvorak has pinpointed a molecule called vascular endothelial growth factor-or VEGF-that causes cancer tumors to emit a clotting agent that encourages and supports the growth of new blood vessels. Just as a wound forms a clot to begin the healing process, Dr. Dvorak has discovered that cancerous tumors are able to turn on this same healing mechanism for their own purposes.

Born and raised in Minnesota, Dr. Dvorak attended the University of Minnesota and continued on to the University of Minnesota Medical School, completing his residency through the U of M program, as well. Dr. Dvorak completed extensive surgical training at the University of Minnesota, and was among the first ophthalmologists to be certified in LASIK as a part of their formal surgical training.

The design of the Dvorak is the culmination of more than twenty years of audio experience and experimentation with various loudspeaker concepts led by Audio Artistry's Siegfried Linkwitz. He is best known as the creator of the "Linkwitz-Riley crossover" filter, the accepted standard in high performance loudspeakers. Although an important ingredient to the Dvorak, the crossover is only one in a long list of breakthrough design elements.

Dvorak studied at the Prague Organ School and with Antonín Liehmann. A capable viola player, he joined the group that became the nucleus of the new Provisional Theatre Orchestra, conducted from 1866 by Smetana.
