INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of the ORION XC Component Loudspeaker system. These speakers offer an incredible value of performance. Copolymer
cone midranges use an oversized voice coil for increased power handling and
performance. The computer optimized crossover perfectly matches the
midrange and tweeter for a seamless response. The passive crossover also
offers an optical protection circuit for the tweeter to protect it from potentially
damaging signals. The 1” copolymer dome tweeter offers a smooth extended
frequency response and incorporates flush, surface and angle mounting
hardware for optimal sonic as well as cosmetic results. The midranges are
available in standard 5-1/4” and 6-1/2” sizes to fit most applications.
