Omega's New Super 3 XRS Speakers

by Josh Ray, Mar 07 '06

 Xrs 2 Tone Front Back Revised 2 Small

From the American full range driver underground comes Omega Loudspeakers. We've covered their other goodies like the Hemptone 8 and the cheap Mini-Me speakers before. All of Omega's speakers have been bookshelves up to this point and, if you follow the forums, you know there's been some regular rumbling for a big boy speaker from Omega. Enter the Super 3 XRS, a grown up version of their acclaimed Super 3 speaker.

Like any full-range speaker, sound comes from one driver. In this case, one of the exotic Fostex 4.5" drivers made from ground banana pulp. Freq is 40-18k Hz with 93dB/8ohms for all you micro-powered fans out there. Like always, Omega sports sexy finishes. Ebony wood below and teak with leather sides above. Best part? Only $849 a pair.
