Any Living Voice OBX-R2 recommendations?

Hi, I had a pair of these that I owned for 8 months or so. Overall I liked the sound.... nice inner detail, very transparent, similar in a lot of ways to the Kharma 3.2 fe's I had previously, not quite as refined. The speakers are very lightweight for starters. Build quality is average, the binding posts are color coded to make it easier to hook up the external x-over, which is also color coded. The binding posts themselves are kind of on the wimpy side. The external x-over, which by nature is a good thing, is a disaster from a wiring stand point. Four runs going from amp to x-over, and then four from the x-over to the speaker. That is for each channel. My room is only 13x17x8, and the wiring really was a problem. Not only from the stand point of expensive, but there were wires everywhere. I had them about 4 feet from the front wall, and about 2 feet from the side. Bass was tight and tuneful, but didn't provide the solid foundation to really put me in the arena. On the other hand, there is musical nuances that I heard on these speakers, that I can't hear on my current ones. I guess overall I would give them a 7/10, which is why I ultimately sold them.

A rare combination of clarity and musicality. Hard to describe but they are simultaneously forgiving and at the same time able to convey alot of intimate detail. I have and reccomend the IBX's because I didn't want to mess with extra speaker wire (for which I reccomend Auditorium 23's). It seamed to me like alot of hassle and expense for a little gain. I have a similar size room and run them plenty loud with 20 watts. Another attribute of this speaker is that they haven't been too picky as to the amp they were maited with. Your Pass should be a good fit.

Is it a great rock speaker? I don't know. It's not going to move a tremendous amount of air. I would look at Klipsch and JBL for mostly rock. I will say that live jazz is outstanding. This speaker has alot "jump." Jazz on this speaker has an element of excitement that I have yet to hear on other speakers.

Thanks guys.

I don't actually have the Pass Labs amp anymore, my system profile is really old and needs updating.
