Fred Roy Cizek (January 29, 1943 – April 12, 1993) was an American inventor, hi-fi designer, and manufacturer. As the founder of in Andover, Massachusetts, he became fairly well known in the audiophile world, especially in Italy, during the late 1970s for his company's high-quality speakers. Before starting his own business, Cizek worked for historical hi-fi manufacturers, such as Acoustic Research, JBL, and Altec Lansing. Blind since the age of three, he developed a special sensitivity for music reproduction and patented a special crossover to ensure a flat impedance curve to his speakers.

  • Roy R. Cizek (29 gennaio 1943 – Torrance, 12 aprile 1993) è stato un inventore statunitense. Fondatore della "CIZEK Audio System" di Andover (Massachusetts), è divenuto piuttosto noto nel mondo audiofilo, specialmente in Italia, alla fine degli anni '70 per i suoi diffusori acustici (vedi altoparlante) di qualità. Nato il 29 gennaio del 1943, ha lavorato per case costruttrici HI-FI storiche come la Acoustic Research, la JBL e la Altec Lansing prima di mettersi in proprio. Cieco dall'età di 3 anni, sviluppò una particolare sensibilità per la riproduzione musicale e brevettò un particolare crossover in grado di garantire una curva d'impedenza piatta alle sue casse acustiche. Ancora oggi i diffusori Cizek sono considerati da molti esperti di audiofilia un punto di riferimento. (it)
