Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?

Ok, the jury is in.
The Walsh 4s win.

After much listening and knob twisting, there is now no doubt.
The W4s have more definition and are more transparent.
I was able to turn the bass up a notch on the tone control which gave it enough kick to satisfy me.

The defining test was listening to the intro from "Money for Nothing".
The drums had much more tone and roundness compared to the W2.2000 speakers which sounded flatter.
At that point I couldn't go back.

Now, what to do?
It looks like a pair of Ohm-Walsh 2.2000 speakers will be for sale soon.
Or, I might relagate them to garage duty.

Anyone interested in the 2.2000s out there?

I'm sure you'll have no problem selling them. 
Where I'm at is, I decided that I don't like the way the speakers look with the grills on. They sound better without the grills as well. I've been looking around, trying to find some nicer-looking wing nuts to replace the ones on them, or similar type of fastener, and am wondering if anyone else has done something along those lines?
I have also been thinking, wouldn't it be cool if the cans rotated a little? Let us say, forty-five degrees from front/center? That way the cabinets could sit nice and straight, while you aimed the tweeters where you wanted. Of course, I have no idea what it would take to build them like that, but something about that round can makes me think of turning it. And, of course, it offends my OCD to toe the cabinets out, or in an uneven way.

Big news!!  Ohm will be at the Chester Group New York Audio Show in November.  Why is this big news?  Because John Strohbeen told me himself that he eschews doing these shows, as he rarely has enough time to get the setup where he wants it to be.  

I intend to visit the show and hope to finally meet John in person.  To me, he is one of the great designers of speakers in the industry.

If you are able to attend the show, especially if you would like to hear Ohm speakers properly demonstrated, this is a rare opportunity.

That is some news. Would love to go but would be a challenge. We’ll see.

Have never met John in person either that I know of, but would really like to.

He was owner of Tech Hifi chain back when I worked there in college. That was where I had my first exposure to OHM speakers (alongside many other popular lines of the time). I sold many (all box models, no Walsh) back then.

Even the conventional box models of his that made up most of the OHM line in the day were the best sounding there to me.  Also the best value as I recall in many cases.

I'd expect original Walsh 4's to have more output capability and ability to deliver in a larger room.

2.2000s not as much but be better in detail clarity imaging (result of newer 2000 driver) and maybe tonality top to bottom in a suitable smaller room.

These are two different size and generation models, apples and oranges as OHMs go, so anything is possible.

I had original Walsh 2s from 1981-1998.   I kept them initially to compare side by side  to the Walsh 2 series 3 models I acquired back then (and am still using).   I was looking for new large speakers at the time for my largest listening room  and after a lot of listening and investigation of options I decided to give OHM a chance

This was an apples/apples comparison in regards to speaker size and output capability.   The newer series 3 drivers were superior in every way.

I traded in the original Walsh 2s towards my larger F5 series 3 models that I also still use in my main setup.    The Walsh2 series 3 were so good for what I payed I ended up keeping them around as well.
