Has anyone compared the Ocellia vs. Tonian? The cabinet of the Ocellia which is claimed to be made as a musical intrument, seems the better design but would be interested in others thoughts.
On what do you base your assessment that the Ocellia cabinet "seems the better design"? Both companies use the same "resonant cabinet" philosophy, actually. I have not heard Ocellia but I can state that the Tonian cabinets, and speakers, are simply amazing in capturing the micro & macrodynamics of acoustic instruments.
Paul, Have you specifically heard the Tonian Lab Classic 12.1(PHY-HP 12 driver)? This is the model that intrigues me. It would seem ideal for 8 watt 300b SET amps.
Unfortunately never heard the Classic 12. Had pr on order 1.5 years ago and canceled due to financial concerns (that didn't materialize). Boneheaded move.
Assessment based on seeing pics of Ocellia speakers and how they are made (from a 6moons factory tour review) and finding NO information of Tonian speakers and what the insides of one looks like. So yes it was an assumption on my part, sorry.
