I have a pair, the cabinet work is beautiful,I think they are model ts2r a great speaker,it has the Fostex driver in it with the wizzer cone,it can be a little dry and shy on the bass side,but i purchased mine on the second hand market,so I don't know if they have been broken in,i also feel that they should have put in a more ROBUST driver!!!
How Good Are Omega High Efficiency Speakers?
Hey A’goners.Due to forced downsizing I had to sell my beloved S.F.Toy Towers & 50wpc.Class A,PP,EL34 I/A a few months ago & switched to a 10wpc.Class A,SE,EL34 amp & very small monitors.Now in a position to start upgrading & believe I want to stick with the low powered SE amp,possibly even moving to 300B SET.
Top of my speaker shortlist are the Silverline Audio Prelude+ but they are $2000.00,not out of budget range but if I don’t have to spend that so much the better as the savings can go toward amp upgrade.
More research led me to the Omega speaker line.I have ALWAYS wanted a pair of speakers finished in Ebony veneer & they offer that on their entire line.The "Super 7 Monitor Mk.II"looks like the model I would want,perfectly sized & spec’d at a decent 45Hz.on the low end.
I value an organic,natural sound with ZERO brightness/harshness along with excellent imaging & sound staging.Source is OPPO BDP105D used for Redbook/SACD/DVD-A discs & streaming via USB.Cables are all Acoustic Zen Zero Crystal Copper/Silver-Copper, room is around 14’x12’x8’ & is perfectly treated.Musical taste includes pretty much everything from Chamber/Baroque,Smooth Jazz,Big Band Standards to Reggae & Classic Rock.
So do you Omega owners think I would be happy with these speakers?
Thanks very much,take care...
