New JAS Orsus speakers arrive
I've just received these speakers for review.

The JAS Orsus is a speaker that I was really intregued with when I saw it at HE2005, but didn't have the time to hear properly. I did hear the JAS Orior standmount with the twin ribbon tweeter, and ceramic bass driver and was VERY impressed. The Orsus is a 3 way tower with a similar twin ribbon tweeter, 2 - 6" woofers, and a very exotic 3" Titanium dome midrange.
I don't think my review is going to count that much!

Just teasing!!
Seriously, have fun with the review!

But I can tell you that these are serial # J00004A & J00004B, so I am pretty sure that this is going to be the first written review published.
So far I've been just cranking tunes on them, trying to break the speaker in right. These woofers got some kick to them. Drums really get you in the chest, and the speaker as a whole seems to be built around drivers with super fast transient responce. I'm going to give it a week or so before I sit down to do some serious listening. Right now it's time to play!
