DeVore Orangutan 96 an upgrade over DeVore 9?


Has anyone made this change? I've had the 9s for 4 years with a Shindo amp/preamp and also a Prima Luna integrated and love these speakers. What would I gain with the Orangutan?

That sounds like a nice analogy. But I can tap my foot to a transistor radio if I dig the music.

Just sayin.......

Shakey
Just goes to show, if you're tapping your foot to the car radio but not to your $10,000 speakers, you've really screwed up.
My system has some of the most boogie factor I have ever heard and I have heard quite a bit, so the O96 can get the toes tapping it is one of there strengths and the things I like most about them. But my Garrard 301 and shindo's certainly help as well with those aspects. Its the density of tone and biggness of sound that is the major upgrade from gibbons. But if you are more into pinpoint images then I would imagine Gibbon X's might be more your thing.
I am now adding Tannoy to my list of possible upgrades over the Devore 9s. Thanks for the comments on the O/96, they are still in the running, along with the Tannoy Definition DC10 Ti.
