I've never owned speakers that sound rich and full at 50 dB.
To my ears, my system sounds best when played at 80-85 dB.
For songs I really wanna jam to, 85-90 dB is righteous.
Rock on!
Does the Devore Fidelity Orangutan 0/96 speaker play rich and full bodied at 50 Decibels
I started an earlier thread seeking a horn that plays rich and full bodied at 50 DBS. Did an AI search and A1 advised that the power I am using is fine to elicit rich sound at 50 DBS from the tweeter horn and mid range horn, it will not get the large woofer moving in order to provide satisfying bass. Since the Lucera, is not readily available for listening, I looked a little further. The Devore 0/96 Orangutan came up and after reading about this speaker it seems that since it is a 2 way and both drivers are close to each as well as the woofer being of the paper cone variety, This would activate the base driver at low DB levels. Does anybody own or have heard this speaker? Wil the entire spectrum of sound, play rich and full bodied at 50 DBs. I am aware of the Fletcher Munson Cure. Thank you in advance for your opinions.
I want to be part of the environment in which the musicians are playing; in the audience, somewhat close up. This can happen at lower listening levels, but I find louder listening to be more exciting, enveloping and closer to my reality. Through my Lascalas, I have numerous amplifiers that get the job done. Having a dedicated room and no one to disturb, I have been gifted. My best, MrD. |
Interesting, I have never seen a speaker rated that way. That is useful. For discussion purposes, I started a whole topic on this today: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/a-new-measurement-specification-for-speakers
