| Single-driver speakers for 2W 45 SET monoblocks I have a pair of Oris 150 horns made by Johnk. They are the true hi-fi bargain of the century (IMHO) that come up on sale occasionally here on 'Audiogon'. They will probably within your budget secondhand. They are not a Single driver speaker and I... |
