Orb Audio - Quality Home Theater Audio:
No home theater setup is complete without the proper audio equipment. Meet Orb Audio line of handmade, highly affordable and décor-friendly audio products. In the realm of home audio, finding speakers that look and sound good is rare... very rare.
Few people realize just how much the price of speakers get marked up. There are some specialty brands that can justify their cost due to the extensive research and engineering that goes into their audio equipment, but those are few and far in between. The majority of high-end companies jacks up their prices and kicks most of your extra money back into their elaborate marketing schemes rather than product development. Orb Audio shatters that mold with their line of custom speakers. They employ a direct-to-consumer business model, so they don't rely on external advertisers, wholesalers and retailers to push up their costs.
Each of these spherical speakers is about the size of a baseball and handmade by metalwork artisans in Orb's California facility. They're manufactured from thin high-carbon steel with advanced technology to produce deep, crisp sound in a tiny package that won't clutter your living room. The speakers are round and measure only about 4 3/16 inches in diameter, so they fit anywhere. They are available in five finishes-metallic black, pearl white, hand polished steel, hand antiqued copper and hand antiqued bronze-to suit any decor. These finishes achieve a level of detail and beauty more commonly found in sculptures than in audio equipment, so consumers can fill their room with sound, not big, ugly speaker boxes.
Orb also produces two ultra-compact high performance subwoofers, the 200-watt Super Eight and the 300-watt Uber Ten. If a buyer needs a complete system, Orb obliges with a variety of choices and combinations of receivers and DVD players. Orb's most popular system is the their Mod1 Plus Home Theater System, which includes 5 speakers, the Super Eight subwoofer, a handmade stainless steel speaker stand and all of the wires and cables needed to set up the system.
Best of all, an Orb Audio speaker system is modular and upgradable, which is another completely unique feature. Each Orb speaker in an audio system can actually be made from one, two or four individual Orbs (Mod1, Mod2 and Mod4). A buyer who starts with the Mod1 system can upgrade to Mod2 or Mod4 at any time in the future, going from the entry level Orb system to the top of the line, as their needs or budget allows.
The starter system for any guy on a budget should seek out the MOD1 home theater speaker system. This is the ideal unit and most compact system featuring five single orbs and comes with the Super Eight subwoofer for only $798.
You may upgrade any of your Mod1 satellites to Mod2 satellites for increased output and performance. Mod2 upgrades are available in two packages. The first package is designed to upgrade your front center channel to a horizontal Mod2 speaker. There is also a package available to upgrade all three of your front left, center and right channels. Both of these packages are extremely popular and allow you to customize your Mod1 system. All colors are always in stock and ship within one business day.
If you live in LA or NYC, you can stop in for a listen at their studios. If not, no worries. Each purchase is backed by 30-day home trial with a no questions asked return policy.
