Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $1200.00 from Orb

Summary:
When I first recieved my orb mod2s with the subwoofer I was fairly disappointed. The seemed to be no midrange. I was in all fairness workin with an older Yamaha reciever, which after talking with the guys at Orb was severely underpowered. I also needed to mess around with the settings and levels. I got it to sound half decent. Using the information I had recieved I used the lower power as an excuse to the wife to get a new reciever. I went with the Denon. After some getting used to the new reciever and some extra tweaking these are the best sounding speakers. very well defined highs which flow very well with the excellent midrange I have now. The sub is great too. plenty of base, enough to shake my walls even at lower levels. I can't say enough about the customer service at orb. They spent all the time necessary to help me get the sound I desired out of their fine product. They would even call me back when they were already closed to help me.

Strengths:
Excellent customer service and support.
Awesome sound that fills the room, full smooth range of sound

Size

Weaknesses:
Takes a little patients and adjusting to get set up right
Hard to dust :)

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
