Small Single Driver Speakers - Help
Check out Omega Speaker Systems. Most of their speakers are single-drivers designed with low wattage amps in mind(93-96dB/8ohms) and they have several monitor models. All now use their hemp cone speakers Here's a Positive Feedback review As to whether they sound like the 47 Lab Lens, I haven't the faintest idea. |
I go along with Dark in that I haven't heard the 47 lab lens, but I do own Omega XRS3 hemp. Now, I believe, they are called the XRS5. They are a nice match with SET and lower power ss amps. Plus, they have a fantastic finish that Louis will customize if you'd like. These fit "the simpler the better" stipulation, but they are nearly a foot wide so not as slim as some. A friend who is not a SET and single driver devotee, heard the new Acoustic Technologies classic series speaker and was smitten. 3" single driver in a narrow and tall cabinet that looks quite a bit like the Arros I used to have. Nice looking speakers! |
Have you heard of Aurousal? They're a UK-made speaker that are very highly regarded. Aurousal's Web Site Obviously, the web site will let you look at the speakers and technical specs, but that's like looking at sheet music and trying to decide if the song sounds good, right? You might put them on your list to consider, but let your ears decide what's the best. Better yet, find the ones that take the music beyond your ears and make the listening experience more rewarding and involving. |
