Peter :

One of the issues with Conas is that the cross over frequency is quite high and they are, to an extent, directional. Therefore the stereo idea is not daft. Not sure I would use them with Pentas as the frequency range will not be extended but each to his own. The Cona was very much designed to work with C/CX speakers as they cover the range 40 - 195 Hz, which removes a good chunk of bass from the CX allowing them to work better as well as adding quite a bit to the bottom of the range. A musical speaker but not an LFE one.

Peter, your are right... forgot that the cross over frequency is  fairly high on the original cona's... 

The cx's and cona were never meant to be top of the line products but mainly designed as add-ons for link rooms.
I do stand corrected as neither my cona and CX's dont use the original cross-overs anymore (though I still have them) but rather use slightly adapted 3rd party crossovers. Resulting in a slightly boosted lower frequency cona giving the dual coil speaker a full workout in the low end and eliminating most directionality. The cx's benefitted with gained detail, fuller sound and overal dynamics.  I live in an open concept refurbished factory loft where it's very hard to make anything sound good. Many trials with B&O and non B&O speakers ended up with echo effect, boomy or tinny sound half way the other end of the room.  I guess a pair of lab 5's or 9's would have been a solution....but not really within my budget just yet. 
( though started saving up for a pair )

Okay cooldude, I just ordered some 2 pin din plugs from that website you posted, as I could not find any locally. I did not want to cause any frustration on your part although I appreciate your offer to locate some, thank you.

I will be sure to let you all know what my findings are, as you all seem very curious.
