With an exceedingly flat impedance response, Ball and Buck + Blumenstein Orcas are true high efficiency speakers, needing as little as 2 watts from a tube amplifier to bloom their entire wall of sound. They can fill large listening spaces yet they possess an inherent purity of sound that can be enjoyed close up, even at distances of less than an arm's length away.
With their unconventionally wide high frequency dispersion angle, the virtual point source fullrange drivers produce a clear and unwavering presentation of the actual space a recording was made in and produce satisfying bass at high or low volume levels, with or without the Orca Subs.
