Introduction
Not all of us have the luxury or the ability to spend thousands of dollars on high priced, high performing, extremely accurate but outrageously ugly speaker systems. And those of us that have that ability may often have to deal with a "significant other" whose love of feng shui may be as strong as our love for tight, accurate, and heart stopping bass. All of a sudden, we have to explain why small, cute speakers are simply inadequate for producing the type of sound quality that an audiophile in training longs to possess. And for the most part, this is true until now. Enter Orb Audio. Sold online though their website only, Orbs are offered in a variety of packages: Single Orbs (Mod 1), double Orbs (Mod 2), or any combination you want including mixing and matching the four available finishes (white, black, hand polished steel, and hand antiqued copper).
