DeVore Fidelity O/93 Speakers
With a new version of our 10 inch Paper cone woofer with phase plug and the same gently horn loaded 1 inch silk dome tweeter, the O/93 retains much of the clarity and tonality of the O/96 at a lower sensitivity in a lower priced speaker.

The O/93 delivers an unexpectedly vast, immersive huge soundstage with a vividly organic, natural midrange, and surprisingly authoritative, deep, taut bass for its compact floor‑standing size. Reviewers like Ken Kessler and Rafe Arnott praise its high sensitivity, refined dynamics and hand‑finished cabinetry, making it a musically engaging, room‑friendly flagship alternative.
Pros
- Expansive, wraparound soundstage with strong image focus and sense of vanish.
- Natural, fluid midrange that renders vocals and instruments with lifelike presence.
- Deep, controlled bass that provides a solid foundation without becoming boomy for the cabinet size.
- High sensitivity and dynamic flexibility — works well with low‑power tube amps yet scales with more power.
&
Cons
- Premium pricing and lavish finishes position it firmly in the high‑end segment.
- Performance is sensitive to placement and grille use — careful setup is required to get the best result.

Bass
93/100
Ported small-to-mid tower design with claimed 30Hz extension; reviewer: 'bass simply covers the floor and creates an impeccable foundation' and 'no woofly sound'. Excellent extension and control for the cabinet size; meets the small-tower 'excellent' band ceiling.
Mid
94/100
Review praises 'fluidity' and 'sinuous and liquid' midrange, with comparisons to classic high-quality designs (Apogee Scintilla). Vocals and instruments portrayed with natural timbre and presence.
Treble
92/100
Silk-dome tweeter with a short-flare plate/hint of horn-loading described; recessed tweeter geometry aids dispersion and survival. Reviewer notes controlled HF dispersion and high sensitivity without hint of edginess.
Soundstage Imaging
94/100
Reviewer repeatedly highlights an 'extraordinarily huge soundstage' and a 'vanishing act' that leaves only the music; wide, deep presentation with strong image focus and wraparound staging.
Dynamics
93/100
High sensitivity and design goal to work with low-power amps, yet it retains impressive mass, airiness and scale when driven harder. Reviewer noted tactile percussion and preserved weight/headroom when cranked.

Build Quality
94/100
Lavish cabinetry likened to the finest woodwork (Sonus faber), wide selection of exotic woods and custom finishes. Cabinet engineering and finish quality are major parts of the asking price.
Features Connectivity
80/100
Passive baseline applied. Setup aided by fitted hardwood feet and single-piece floorstanding configuration; no bi-wire terminals or DSP expected.
Value for Money
86/100
At ~£9,998/pair (reviewed price) these are premium-priced. Reviewer's strong praise for sound and cabinetry suggests the price is justified for buyers seeking luxurious finish and refined performance, though this is a high-end proposition.
