A separate cosmetically matched 15" sub bundled in with f-5000 is as good a guess as any I can come up with to hit that high price. I guess only John knows for sure. I would call but don't like to bother him unless I am serious about possibly buying something which I am not in this case.
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Hi,
I'd love to hear the impressions of people who've actually spent some time with these speakers to share their sense of their plusses and minuses. Mapman here on Audiogon is a big fan, and has shared lots on them, but I'm wondering who else might be familiar with them.

I had sent John S. at Ohm a note earlier, and inquired about the Ohm F-5015, here is his response. Guess I wasn't too far off on my guess afterall.... The F-5015 is the ultimate upgrade Ohm F. The cabinet has a 15" XtremeXcursion, sealed subwoofer (on the bottom) and a 500 watt amplifier to get a 16Hz response at high output levels. The F driver board gets sealed and enlarge to be accept a Walsh 5000 driver. The grill is the size of the original F but is made from mostly perforated metal and has our current seamless grill cloth. When built all-new, we are targeting $12,000 per pair. I am using up F cabinets with these beta versions. Maybe at some point there will be some pics, maybe.....Tim |
$185/pair during the sale for these Cam 16s sounds like a no brainer to me for anyone in the market for a good "cheap pair of speakers" as Billy Joel once said. I've almost picked up a pair of one of the CAM line on several occasions used on Ebay. These are refurbed with all teh latest and greatest stuff John can put in there. |
