DETAILS OF THE ORGON
The power supply of a total 1 kW is completely situated at the rear of the bass and is fully
separated from the amplifier. This means that only harmless electricity of ± 36 V emanates
from that corner – but plenty of it. The powerful transformers have an additional shielding
winding, to prevent capacitative charging. There is a large main on/off switch and a lowvoltage relay switch for daily operation. This switches off the output stages, but keeps the
crossover connected. The four amplifiers per side are now all together behind the deep
mid-range horn - the best technical and acoustic position - and can be dismantled with four
screws. The connection to the loudspeakers is extremely short and manufactured from
pure silver. The completely symmetrical crossover is concealed in a closed area, but is
easily accessible and can be dismantled with one screw for servicing purposes.
Understandably, the most up to date and best components are used, such as mica
capacitors for the signal path. All components are selected and paired for balanced rightleft homogeneity. The main connections of the mid high-range unit are connected by eight
M12 screws, in order to provide the entire unit with an optical and mechanical stability
whilst still providing ease in disassembly.

The high-range horn is constructed from solid material, both mid-range and lower midrange units are of filled sandwich construction, acoustically dead and provide constant
resonance dissipation. The sensitivity of the drivers will probably continue to define the
limits of what is technically achievable: for example 116 dB 1 W/m in the case of the midrange and tweeters. In the lower mid-range horn there is a special 30 cm cone driver with
a powerful magnet and in the bass a corresponding 46 cm driver.
The bass horn is mechanically so stable that even the most powerful impulses are not
perceived by the cabinet. Nevertheless, the mid-high-range unit was mechanically
separated from its base by a further stage.
The Orgon effortlessly demonstrates the tiniest variations in the acoustic chain. It has an
unbelievable presence, even when listening quietly (very important) and is certainly
bettered by no other system in terms of dynamics and power. It delivers a smooth and
simple sound, just as one would want.
The Orgon is always individually matched to the spatial characteristics and/or to the
customer's wishes. Here there is a broad range of implementation possibilities, particularly
when there is no corner available to accommodate the bass. The Orgon is fitted and
calibrated anywhere in the world by the developer in person. Any exchange of components
onsite is extremely simple and at the works there is a team of technicians that is constantly
available. Further developments in future can, therefore, easily be retrofitted. According to
all owners so far, the Orgon is a lifetime investment.
In terms of optical integration, the Orgon can be supplied in a pleasantly nostalgic antique
ambiance; in modern rooms it sometimes gives the impression of a futuristic work of art.
All forms of decoration or showmanship are dispensed with. Forms follows function and
that is it.
When playing back very good recordings, it disappears as a locationally perceivable source
of sound. Specialists are available where required, to deal with acoustically complicated
rooms. The Orgon can be used spectacularly as a multi-channel system, but is also used
with great success as a pure stereo system.
