Made for modern homes
The Lyngdorf FR-2 is a floor standing loudspeaker that has been specially designed for placement against the wall to ensure a visually and acoustically ideal room integration. The speaker has been tuned for best sound performance when placed close to a wall, while the very shallow cabinet shape, an invisible, downward-facing bass reflex port, and the choice of colours and fabric covers allow an easy and space-saving integration in modern homes.
Best sound performance through wall placement
The high-performance drive units are integrated into a shallow speaker design that takes advantage of the room acoustics instead of working against them. The FR-2 has been specifically tuned for wall placement, with the woofers located as close as possible to the wall behind the speaker. This leads to an ideal impulse response in the low frequencies and results in a surprisingly tight and powerful bass, unheard of with most free-standing speakers.
High-performance woofers and tweeter
The two high-performance 6.5” / 18 cm woofers are equipped with a rigid, vented die-cast basket, an extra-strong and large magnet, and a very light aluminium cone, while the soft-dome tweeter also uses an extra powerful magnet. This provides the highest efficiency and a high maximum volume level while keeping the distortion low. The very linear impedance around 4 Ohms allows any amplifier to perform at its best. The bass reflex port is placed downward facing, which hides it from view and acoustically always keeps the same distance to the floor boundary.
Modern colours and exchangeable fabric covers
The FR-2 is not only tuned for the best sound performance close to a wall, but the enclosure is also shaped for this purpose. The speaker is unusually shallow, while the smooth, rounded edges, the front baffle merging into the top, modern satin-matte colour options, and optional exchangeable fabric covers from Danish specialist Gabriel let the FR-2 blend into every living room. The speaker can either stand on the floor using two stabilizer feet, or even more space-saving with four spike feet and a wall fixing strap, or use the optional wall mount for the smallest footprint. The FR-2 is made and lacquered in Denmark.

The FR-2 front baffle merges into the top and is available in different matching or contrasting colours. The fabric covers from Danish specialist Gabriel are also exchangeable and let the FR-2 blend into every living room.
Standard speaker finishes: White/white, black/black, mocca/mocca, white/black, white/mocca, black/mocca.
Optional front baffles colours available additionally in: White, black, and mocca. Optional fabric covers variable in: Midnight grey, grey.
“The basic shape of any on-wall speaker is very rectangular and flat against the wall, so we gave the middle part of the FR-2 an extra shape, which also covers all screws and driver baskets. With this design element, the speaker looks much more elegant and slim. The fabric grill is placed instead of the baffle, so it is totally flush with the speaker front.”
Brian Nielsen, Mechanical Designer
“Value your space – or simply don’t have another option but to place your speakers against the wall? Then choose speakers that were actually designed for that. Full-size yet slim cabinets, drivers adapted from in-wall models, smart tuning, multiple installation options – this is it. A solution that doesn’t bend reality or pretend to perform acoustic miracles. Even better, in terms of specs and connectivity, the FR-2s are just like regular hi-fi speakers. So if you’re dreaming of a stereo setup with a modern streamer, a turntable, a tube amp, and silver cables – go for it.”
Tomasz Karasiński, stereolife.pl
“That’s what living room friendliness means: Instead of occupying lots of rooms space, the Lyngdorf FR-2 stand flat and perfectly shaped directly at the wall – and thanks to the Boundary Woofer principle, that’s where they deliver the full performance with a powerful yet precise bass.”
“The Lyngdorf approach is the following: The wall is your friend. The speaker takes advantage of the room acoustics instead of working against it. With normal speakers, a position close to the wall leads to unwanted bass exaggerations. Even the placement with some distance to the wall leads to unwanted bass effects.”
