Best Driver for ORIS 150 (BD-Design)

Bert, I am having second thoughts about replacing my Oris 150s with AER BD3s and Fostex t900a super tweeters with the new horns and BMS compression drivers. Simply put the main reason for this is because the speaker system as it exists sounds so very good that I am reluctant to change. In particular the Oris 150s with open backs have a dipolar component to the sound that I feel contributes to the image having great depth back to and beyond the wall and room corners behind the speakers. I don't doubt that the BMS compression drivers offer advantages over the present arrangement I use, but I am concerned that I would loose image characteristics that I really enjoy. I apologize for any of your time I have wasted. I believe I will save the dollars I would spend on the new horns and drivers for when I have to have the BD3s reconed and updated by AER.
