Well, I have just taken receipt of my Orelo speakers (pic attached) - the bigger version of the Orelino speakers, with 3x 15" bass drivers per channel as opposed to 3x 12" drivers.
I realize that Romy doesn't regard the coaxial BMS mid/high compression driver very highly. But it performs perfectly OK for me, with my appreciation and taste in music.
Even with only 2 weeks of ownership, it's clearly the best speaker I've ever owned (perhaps not saying much in the company of people who frequent these boards). My goal has always been to recreate through speakers the sound I get from my AKG K-1000 headphones. I don't think I've quite achieved this - the sweetness and colour of the K-1000s isn't present and the sound is slightly greyer in comparison. But the dynamics are all there. And ultimately whenever I've sat and listened to music these last couple of weeks, I've found it a very rewarding experience.
I'm happy to answer any questions should anyone have any.
Mani.
