Does anyone remember Ohm I speakers?

OK were talking vintage here. Wonder how these compare to new speakers? I have a set and compare them to PSB Stratus Golds. I had upgraded all drivers in the OHMs over the years. To me it is a toss up. The PSB has better imaging and maybe midrange tonality. The Ohms go deeper in the bass and play louder. The presentation of the midrange is different cause of top speakers point up. The PSB does have a slight edge. Has anyone else compared the OHMs to new speakers? Maybe I am a little biased toward OHM. I have read that speakers and amps , preamps that fidelity has changed the least. Digital sources the most. Any comments appreciated.

I remember hearing the "box" Ohm speakers (the bigger 12" jobs not the 8")a long time ago and was pleasantly surprised and impressed given the pedestrian drivers. A good speaker as I remember them. I have never had the chance to hear the Walsh driver Ohms so I don't know their sound.

I refurbished a pair of C2's a couple years ago and they are really just as excellent in comparison to many of the newest speakers as I remembered them back in the day when new.
