Introduction
If there was one thing this years Consumer Electronics Show (CES) proved to us, it’s that sound is not always directly proportional to the size of the speaker. We have seen some pretty amazing micro speaker systems this past year from the likes of Onix and HSU Research, so we were excited to see what Orb Audio had to offer.
Based out of New York, employee owned Orb Audio claims that you can have audiophile quality speakers at a fraction of the cost because of the company’s low overhead. And believe it or not, they are made here in the USA. Orb Audio offers a 30 day money back guarantee as well as phone support from 9AM to 9PM Eastern Standard time.
With four systems to choose from in both stereo and surround home theater setups, there is a speaker package for anyone’s needs. The speaker system featured in this review is the company’s Classic Two Stereo Speaker System featuring four satellites paired up in a 2.1 system. The Classic Two system has an MSRP of $629.
