The OC/HO range includes loudspeakers with double symmetrical waveguides primarily dedicated to domestic use, whether in High-End or Home-Theater.
That said, make no mistake about it: the three versions of the serie will be equally at home in a professional environment, both in the recording studio or to add sound to any type of enclosed space, from a restaurant to a hairdressing salon the search for a beautifully crafted ambient musical environment (ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 15) to the Convention Center of a large metropolis wishing to optimize the mesh and the number of valued sound emission points (ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 35 and ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 45).
What electronics should be associated with the loudspeakers of the OC/HO range? Impossible to evacuate the question with an answer in black and white, all shades of gray included... Everything will ultimately depend on the expectations and tastes of the music lover and the audiophile. The ARKHEOSS Acoustics blog will soon begin to publish listening feedback documenting the discoveries and experiences made by our customers and friends.
In the meantime, let's content ourselves with specifying that, since it is not necessary to reserve a large part of the current it receives for supplying the passive cross-overs for distributing the current between several transducers covering complementary frequency bands or, even, for powering the retroactive damping loops of the amplifiers (damping factor), the first feedback testifies to a good affinity of the ARKHEOSS Acoustics speakers with class AD (Nuprime: DAC 10 + 1 pair of bridged AMG STA), class A in SET mode (Audiolab 6000A preamp section + Deckware Zen SE84UFO) or class AB (Audiolab 6000A).
We will come back to it soon, directly on the blog, for always more info and details on all the electronics and ancillary materials that go well with the ARKHEOSS Acoustics symmetrical double waveguide loudspeakers of the OC/HO range ;)
The ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 15 loudspeaker or the double symmetrical waveguide in its "Biblio" version. Very close to its big brothers in terms of dynamics, transparency or explosiveness, the ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 15 loudspeaker has the specific advantage of having been sized to ideally adapt to listening spaces of reasonable (15 liters of air displacement -> 30 m2 -> inaudible sound reverberation), so common today, especially in town. It will therefore become an excellent alternative to listening to headphones.

The ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 35 loudspeaker or the double symmetrical waveguide in its "Full Range" version.
Very close to its big brother in terms of dynamics, transparency or explosiveness, the ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 35 loudspeaker has the specific advantage of having been sized to ideally adapt to large to very large sized listening spaces (35 liters of air displacement -> 100 m2 -> inaudible sound reverberation), less and less common today. It will therefore become an excellent alternative to listening to the original live concert.

The ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 45 loudspeaker or the double symmetrical waveguide in its "Big Block" version.
Unequaled in terms of dynamics, transparency or explosiveness, the ARKHEOSS Acoustics OC/HO 45 loudspeaker has the specific advantage of having been sized to ideally adapt to very large listening spaces (45 liters of air displacement -> 160 m2 -> inaudible sound reverberation), less and less common today. It will therefore become an exceptional alternative to listening to the original live concert.
