Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

I have had all three .......

the experience is completely different with omnis in that they are much more coherent then box speakers - yet have a sweet spot that to an extreme degree is larger than planer speakers.

the imagining is very different then lets say a co axial point source such as a tannoy , the new mofi or some of the genelec monitors which give absolutely pinpoint accurate placement of the instruments and singers - its more diffuse yet more natural - its more like you are in a concert hall then in a anechoic chamber.

they are incredible

the problem is you cant just buy a used pair of Ohm speakers and think you are getting the real experience - you need to buy a set of TRUE WALSH SPEAKERS - which were only the F or A MODELS and out of production for decades - all of those have fallen apart at this point due to the materials implemented OR you can buy - as in this case - a very limited production and expensive revamp of the Ohm F from just a handful of sources such as what HHR or German Physiks makes .....the othe good option is the MBL omnis which use different technology
