Why not build them (this is DIY Audio) and save yourself a pile of money...$3K and some time will get the job done!

 

[jasoncsbb]

Because buying other people's projects save time and even more money! 🙂

Well, you can always buy a fully built kit (links at linkwitzlab), but I guess you already know that 😉

1500 for the pair

Best of luck - materials for a strictly DIY set with the lowest cost cabinet construction (MDF) would cost at least $2750 excluding amplifier(s) and speaker cabling! Add probably ballpark 100 hours for fabrication, assembly & finishing & 🙄

100 would work fine for simple painted MDF cabinet...mine were a lot more involved but I was trying to keep the estimate conservative - buddy!

@markmelheim :

thanks for the link!

So your speaker is a midrange dipole with a vented sub, all passive it seems.

Quite a different animal compared to the fully active, full range dipole+bass distortion cancellation concept of the Orion.
