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...

RE: bass flabbiness

Have you tried pulling them out from the front wall a bit more? Or tried them with a higher output (higher damping) amp?

I currently am using the Haut Brion (older version with global neg feedback). Does the Cortese have higher damping?

Speakers are way out in room, 4 from side and 6 from back wall, rectangular room, nothing in between.

Have 500 hours on them.
