Compact Hemps and 5” Bipoles still play important roles in Omega’s revamped product lineup
November 14, 2008
With all the recent changes, Omega announces two traditional speakers – ideal for special applications – remain in lineup:
Compact Hemp: Great macro & micro-dynamics, coupled with high (96db) sensitivity, make this speaker idea for low-powered amps.
“Compact Hemps, using Omega’s latest 8-inch Hemp ferrite driver are an ideal match for flea amps, low-watt SET amps, and other low-powered amps,” says Louis Chochos, Omega Founder.
“Standalone or coupled with a fast sub, like one of Omega’s DeepHemps, Compact Hemps deliver an intimate and seductive listening experience,” adds Louis.
Bipoles: Breathtaking imaging in the proper listening environment.
According to Louis, “while the speaker remains unchanged (formerly called Super 3 Bipole), it is now named the Super 5 Bipole, reflecting its use of Omega’s most recent 5-inch HempCone driver.”
“If your listening room can support ample space behind the speakers, give me a call and I’ll help you determine if Super 5 Bipoles might be you’re best fit,” adds Louis.
Compact Hemp and Super 5 Dipole pricing remains unchanged between now and December 31, 2008. After that, Omega plans to raise pricing for both models to reflect current production costs.
