Hi diyAudio community,
I have some unfortunate news, my dad (bjorno) passed away at an age of 71 last monday due to a rupture of the main aorta close to the stomach which obviously means that he won't be posting anything here anymore. I know that he spent a lot of his time helping people at this forum and that he probably wants his posts to remain for people to read and to seek guidance from, but other than that his account should be locked or something maybe some moderator can take care of that.
Just wanted everybody to know so nobody asks him anything in vain and decided to post here in sub-woofers section since he spent most of his time here in later years, sorry for the bad news.
Best regards Rick.

My sincere condolences Rick, on the passing of your father. I admired him enormously. His mastery of Hornresp was unsurpassed - he was able to do things with the software that I didn't even realise were possible. A sad loss indeed. His generous contributions to diyAudio will be sorely missed.
Such terrible news. He was one of the first people I interacted with here on diyaudio, with kindness and generosity of his time. He will be missed.
Rest in peace, Bjorno, and my best wishes to his family and friends.

Tragic news. He was a Hornresp legend and very helpful here.
I learned a lot of Hornresp possibilities thanks to bjorno.
Take care of yourself, friends and family!

This is very sad, he was very helpful and knowledgeable.
Wish I could have met him in real life. Very sad, find myself missing words.
Hope he is in a good place.
Sincere condolences to the family.
Condolences seems to me such a lacking word to offer in a time of grief, but it is the word we have.

Sorry to learn that. I was often expecting the moment him to post in threads one of his legendary posts.
I was and still i am really curious about what kind of person he should be in real life.
Rest in peace

Condolences to you and your family & friends for the loss of your father. He was a valued contributor to this community.
My deep condolences, Rick, and with real feeling. I suffered this dreadful accident in 2012 and I just managed to survived. I had 23 hours combined of surgery and 29 days in medical coma, it was quite an extraordinary time in my life. Along with side effects, I suffered a stroke and lost my speech so had to recover from a long way behind. Most people could not come back from his age; I was only 61. Your Father would have had huge damage to his body even if he had survived.

Peace to your family and to you Rick. Your dad was a extraordinarily talented man. Unselfish in providing above and beyond help to me and others here and abroad.
Stay strong.
Stay strong.
Bjorno always amazed me with his generosity and knowledge. Someone would ask "is this possible?" and he'd cross-check the specs of the speaker, and then come up with a couple of different designs including recommendations for internal damping etc.
He'll be sorely missed.
