Coot,
fwiw, as I mentioned on the other thread, if you run a SS or Class D amp with only 10k input impedance for bass in particular, That will not match well with most tube pre-amps. That impedance issue will create distortion and result in poor bass most likely.
Can you tell me what pre-amp you use? That would help settle that.
If currently you use tube pre-amp with your 10k input impedance Class D amps, that might well account for any bass issues with your Ohm 5000s ( or any other speakers driven similarly for that matter) which should be able to deliver as much clean bass as desired, though since driver is downward firing you might not feel as much slam with Ohm Walsh in the bass as others with bass drivers firing towards your listening position.
If you have an impedance mismatch from Pre amp to amp, I would address that first otherwise any speaker change may make little difference.
Also I recall your room was odd shaped with one speaker closer to side wall than other. The adjustments on the 5000s should be just what the doctor ordered to tame bass as needed. It could be harder to get other speakers to work well there unless you have some other way of tuning left versus right speaker specifically as needed.
