decware err radial speakers

Thanks Frazeur. That helps.

They are very nice looking. I would expect good things. The comparison with newer similar OHMs should be of interest to others as well as me I would think.

Given the driver configuration and the rated efficiency, I'm guessing that the driver must be operating as a Walsh/wave bending driver to some extent, but I suppose only the maker would know for sure.

Given the decware product portfolio, I would expect a good degree of tube amp friendliness. I have a vision of setting up a small tube amp based system someday in a bedroom perhaps. Decware is square on my radar screen for that.

Map, definately of the tube friendly sort for sure. In talking with Decware folks though, the ERR's have been used on several solid state amps as well with good success.

As far as the bending wave technology, I have read so much about it here and there and of course gone through Lincoln's developments with the Ohm A/F, and when I look at the way the current Ohm CLS drivers are made/utilized, and also the Decwares, I am somewhat at a loss to say it is indeed "bending wave technology". But honestly, it isn't something I get all uptight about-unlike several others on the forums, they sound good and that is all that matters to me.

The Ohm 3000 for me has been a struggle of sorts, but have kind of gotten things pinned down and they have been sounding very excellent of late. I am still wanting to try the Decwares for a few reasons that I won't go into here, but it just may have to wait until later this summer/early fall. We will see, and if that happens, a shoot-out of sorts will take place.

Enjoy the music! Tim

Tim,

As the originator of the famous/infamous "Micro Walsh Tall" mega-thread, I, too, would be very interested in your shootout between the two speaker technologies. Hope you get to do it!

Rebbi, you are no longer allowed on the "omni" forums seeing how you left the fold. Hah, just kidding! Hope all is well with you and your audio/music endeavours.

I have been curious about the Decware ERR for far too long, and I do hope that things do work out to allow me to get some time with them in my own system, and just hear what they are all about. I look forward to it myself! Tim

Yep, omnis/radials are the minority. Conventional more directional speakers are somewhat in the same fold as a shiksa from the minority perspective.

Those of us in the tribe know what can happen there!
