8 ohm and 78.5 dB sensitivity…need a serious amplifier for that

Ruin? Tolerate? What?!

Dudes. He has a job and is an engineer. If he lived off his YouTube channel he’d be living off saltines and in a tent. The guy is an audio measurement nut and has been measuring stuff for more than a decade. Sheesh the innuendo is so petty. He got a lot of hits because of the speaker he...

May I ask what color?

Two audiophiles walk into a bar…and immediately complain they didn’t get a senior citizen discount on the cover charge

I was half kidding because I’ve been thinking about using those drivers but their sensitivity stinks. I do mostly active builds but Not for a car so I wouldn’t want one driver to take up 2 channels, and honestly not a monoblock either. A home 2 channel amp that can do 2 ohms on the cheap with...

Something that can finally drive these wired in parallel...

Don’t do it for all the reasons already given. By the time you retire technology will have moved on anyway. My advice for a working retirement is to work part-time retail for a mom and pop type business. Like drinking single malts and beer with your friends? Don’t buy the bar, get a couple...

His choice of course. Being on the side of the consumer and not testing the stock amp is confusing since he’s done that with the Fosi amps and others. Data for that would be helpful if making a purchase

They do. It’s in the back of the cabinet.:cool:

Nostalgia by proxy? I feel like there has to be a German word for that

Yes I know. Sorry wasn't clear. I meant if the testing conditions were the same for the CX150 as the CX120. The frequency response I posted was the CX150 that the Orian uses. Both the 150 and the 120 drivers have also had the complaints I mentioned plus inconsistency between units when...

If it’s the same as the CX120 and usual Dayton/PE format it is 2.83v/1m with 1/24 smoothing and splicing at 450 hz. I have a number of the smaller CX120s and they are too compromised in a number of ways to call them good (freq. response and power handling the biggest)

Assuming the quality control is ok from the manufacturer

A pair of LS60s or maybe D&D 8Cs although those would be too large for many people. Simple,?elegant and full sound they can play from their phones. The LS60s have the different factor too between boxes and Bluetooth portable speakers. Anything beyond that and most people now honestly roll...

Yes, I know it was your original feedback request and it is classic!. Wanted to chime in bc there was some criticism of it but I like it!

Back to the cabinet looks. I agree with Keith that the veneer band on the baffle like the Manta would make it stand out and add a touch of class. Otherwise the plain black looks utilitarian or home theater hide it-ish. I personally like the veneer on the full sides and black or white baffle too.

Thanks for sharing your inspiration. He was a great influence. Sounds like your next speaker should be called the Revenant
