I've been rooting around on the net for a few hours this afternoon, and just stumbled upon this:

Celebration of Life" for Siegfried Linkwitz, Sunday October 14, 1:30PM - 4:00PM, at the Mill Valley Community Center ,180 Camino Alto, in Mill Valley, 8 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Everyone is welcome!.



I'm sure it was well attended - for me the better ones of these I've been to had more smiles than tears.

 

[KaffiMann]

Did not notice this until now.
Nice to see the pictures from ZM.

Thanks to Sigfried Linkwitz for sharing so much.

I’m just seeing this. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and may you Rest In Peace.

 

[Saam]

A true inspiration to all engineers, DIYers and music lovers. RIP Mr Linkwitz.

Back in the 80s in my engineering, I first came across Linkwitz in my text books - Linkwitz-Riley crossover. I was really surprised to find him actively contributing to open source hardware/mind ware here on Diyaudio during the 2000s. It was an absolute pleasure to meet him in Burning Amp a few years back, top meet a man I knew through my text books! A very kind and generous man, freely giving us his knowledge.

May you Rest in Peace Linkwitz

 

[compaddict]

He was always a pleasure to speak with.. One of the giants.

 

[atltx]

Thanks for seeing me through some rough times. RIP

 

[Kokanee]

Another legend is resting now. Peace be with you Siegfried Linkwitz, you will be missed.
