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 compressio...

I need to say that I do not like the Netherland-based company BD-Design. They do in my view non interesting products and their owner Bert, despite of being a more or less knowledgeable audio fellow have a tendency to patronize incredibly filthy audio...

I am not so impressed bout BD Design speakers. I truly hated the BMS drivers that they use and I truly hate the network of the blabbering cretins that BD Design built around itself. Any single critical mentioning of BD Design lead to a sudden sho...

Well, since this thread is about the BMS drivers then what can I say? When I tried the BMS driver I felt that their “absolute tone” ability was at the level of demands of school auditoriums. Read more about “absolute tone” at:

I do not know what it is all about as I’m under impression that it you socialize with people on dB-design forum then they will be more responsive about your excitement. I’m not quite sure what the SWING is all about as the guy mentioned and descried ...

Romyi will start building my first hornspeaker, going from theory ( surfing the net ) to practice. i am not pretentious regarding the result, i am very aware of my knowledge limitations and lack of experience, as i am just in the beginning. but the w...

Yes, I did not realize that the price of £225 is for a PAIR; usually price is given per driver. I guess the £225 per pair is not and of the world but I still insist to pay 65 cents per 1 Euro as it use to do… In past I n...

Romy, you have a way with words.I can't remember when I attended the Munich show, I think it was 4 years ago. Interestingly, my thoughts back then pretty much echoed what has been said in this thread - what has happened to high end audio these last f...

Hello, Angelo
[quote user="angeloitacare"]The best sound i remember, and never forgot, was at Holger Frommes Home, from Avantgarde Acoustic, the trios. I never heard something better. [/quote]
Yes, Avantgarde can do it if the situation is right. I ...

[quote user="serenechaos"] I wasn't trying to critique Bert, or even get into an in-depth critique on the Swing…. Maybe that's why you went into more description of Bert, and his business? You feel it is somehow reflected in the speakers ...

Hi Romy
a good sound in a room does not depend only on the speaker chain, but essencially also of the room acoustics. Probably many of the Trio systems didn’t sound right just because of that…. I was at Holgers Home in Lautersbach back in 94. He ha...
