RE: Front horns: FR cone vs. comp driver

Posted by markdonnaharris@yahoo.com on December 26, 2020 at 19:35:22:

I just stumbled across this thread though looks to be 6 months old.

I have both the Oris-150 and Orphean horns from Bert. I have been using both for a little over a year now and absolutely love them. I have the horns paired with Bert's reference compact base enclosures. The Oris and Orphean are significantly different in their presentations. The Oris w/Voxativ AC-2.6 drivers is very smooth, very revealing but a bit polite on the top end... but significantly better than the multiple lowther drivers I auditioned and very similar to the AER BD-1. On the other hand the Orphean using the dual concentric compression driver is super dynamic, and nicely balances from 250Hz to 28kHz. Note also my 15" base units are on an xover driven by Crown class-D power thus very dynamic as well and a good match for the horns. I run the horns from Coincident 300B monoblocks wo/ xover.
