For this comparison, I returned to those two songs, “Nobody” and “We Shall Be Happy,” from Ry Cooder’s Jazz. I wanted to compare the DeVore O/93’s male vocal and bass regions to what I experienced with the Alta Alyssa. Very quickly, both songs made it clear: the DeVore’s greatest strength was the Alta’s greatest weakness. The more expensive O/93s resolved more detail in the male-vocal region (approximately 85–600Hz) than did the Alyssa. After a full day playing a variety of music through the Orangutan O/93s, I returned to the Alyssa, which then—sequence is everything—seemed dark and slightly rounded.
