Ohm Walsh F Hope of Resurrection

I'm going to put the Model F back in and jack em up. They're no good to me treating them like paper mache.  If they break, they break. I've already gotten a valuable, yes worth the money and time, comparison between speakers. Consider this exploration for the sake of humanity,  like Space-X, only on slightly smaller scale.   ;)

For those appalled at this decision, I remind that this was a set with major damage and on the way to the dump. I would never ever treat review or more valuable gear in such fashion. Feel free to check with any manufacturer whom I have reviewed, or my sales of my gear. 

I'm pushing the issue, building systems at advanced pace to get to the end of the matter. In a day or two I will know whether the F is worthy of more time. It could perk up. I'll build yet another rig for more perspective.  

Once again, as consistent in this stream of consciousness discussion, not a review, I make no claims or promote no expectations of either HHR or current Ohm products.  

Doug, as a check point to your repairs you might speak with Harry Weisfeld.  He has a pair of restored stacked Ohm F at the VPI house.  I haven't heard them, but perhaps he has some ideas to help bring out the best in the F. 

My recollection from back in the day is that OHM-Fs did not have shimmering highs, nor could really loud sound levels be played without some loss of control. What they offered was room filling sound and a good soundstage at moderate volumes. IIRC my memory from this long ago is suspect. 

@douglas_schroeder ,
I'd be interested in listening to the Kings Audio King Tower. They look super cool.
I'm also glad that the majority of posts have been spot on and helpful.
