Ohm Acoustic Corp., Brooklyn NY


Greetings All

This is, unfortunately,  an uneasy post.  I was persuaded to dive into a buying a set of Ohm Acoustics Walsh Tall 3000.  My very funky factory loft with 11' ceilings, not a single straight wall, 145 yr. old very wide & distressed oak flooring other issues dictated an Ohm Acoustics design.  However, placed/paid for my speakers 11/06/2021.  Speaking with Ohm indicates I can expect delivery around the middle of June.  That date has krept forever onward.  Yes, there was a snafu at Ohm's end that they readily recognize. But poor, poor, customer relations. I have spoken with Jake several times over the last 7 months; quite the gentleman.  However, I just no longer have a good feeling that Ohm Acoustics is on top of their game. And the last thing I want to do is spend about $6,000 for a product where the company is gone, out of business.

 Crutchfield can ship me a set of Klipsch Cornwall IV this afternoon. My decision process 7+ months ago had me considering either the Cornwalls or the Walsh Talls. I went with the Walsh Talls. Hey, it still may be sonically the better decision. But until I get delivery of my Ohms I'll never know. 

Thoughts?

Klipsch and Ohm. Can't think of any two speakers that are more different than those two.

Uh, I'd have cancelled the Ohms a LONG time ago, hopefully you didn't put down much of a deposit. Extended and shifting delivery times are never a good sign...get your money back asap and move on.

If you are cross shopping these two speakers you are not ready to buy anything IMO. 

Great luck with the Ohms that will hopefully be in your home soon! I heard an older pair of Fs at a used store a few years ago and they were pretty damn good. Probably a good choice for a big space you may be moving around in. I look forward to your impressions of them.
