DeVore Orangutan O/96


The original Orangutan thread appears to have been deleted, so I'll re-start it. Did anyone hear them at In Living Stereo earlier this month? Any initial thoughts or comparisons you can offer? I'm anxious to hear them myself, but don't plan on being in the NYC area anytime soon...

Heard the Orangutan in NYC about a month ago with Shindo Masseto, Haut Brion and Well tempered TT. Good robust body to the sound. Weighty and authoritative. Musicians were in the room.
I heard The 0/96 with Haut Brion and they didnt sound like the Nines to me. The O's seemed to have more body/richness and weight.

I should add that when listening to the Nines, they where being driven by a Massetto/Montrachet during one listening session and a Massetto/Cortese in an other listening session and a Pathos TT in yet another session.

Been in ILS several times the size is about 20x14??? They have the system set up along the long wall so the listener is 7-10 ft. away from the speakers.

Knott, lol!!
