Oris 150 some questions (BD-Design)

Hello Markus,

and a Fostex T725 as supertweeter (and a KHorn-Bass). Any hints or
advices for this combination ? (selling the FE204 and the T725 is
no option and buying an AER MD 3 is far to expensive in my opinion.)

That is a question difficult to answer, I have never experimented of even heard the FE204 or the T725. I am fully "blind" with this combination so any comment would be useless...

Normal stereo listening at a high volume levels is no problem i hope,
but homecinema use is something completely different.

The main difference with home cinema is the bass. Sound effects can be extreme in the deeper bass and if the driver for the mid-high horn is not filtered then it will move a lot more compared to playing music and that might damage the driver. For mid- and high frequencies this should not be much different.

Drivers with real strong magnets do have less problems with bass, these are much more dampened by the magnet (that's why very low Q driver do not give much bass) but it still becomes a problem on extreme playback levels.

With home cinema I would suggest NOT to mix the subwoofer channels to the main channels so always configure the HT-processor as if you do have a subwoofer connected.

Ciao,

Bert
