Well, I saw a pair of Ohm Walsh-2's in very good cosmetic condition and grabbed them for $80.
For some reason, without ever having listened to Ohm speakers, I heard they were 'great' sounding speakers, and had a positive impression of them. They probably are highly rated by folks who think Bose 901s are great speakers.
I just swapped out a pair of Dahlquist DQM 905s and hooked up the Ohm Walsh 2's to a Kenwood KA9100 amp and a Sony CDP CA9ES CD Player in my garage system. I use the cross over in a modified Kenwood SW300 sub (Dayton Titanic 10" driver).
I love the Dahlquist M905s and was hoping that the Ohm Walsh 2s would be even better. They are not. The highs were dull, the bass, muddy.
I heard that the Ohms need 125 wpc to shine, but at the listening levels I'm comfortable with, the Kenwood rarely is asked to put out more than 10 watts per channel according to the power meters.
Anyway, they're good looking, nice wood.
