Are the new Ohm Walsh speakers Audiophile quality?

what material are used on Ohm's main drivers?

AFAIK, I think it varies from model to model.  I think my 2000s have an aluminum driver, but it doesn't sound at all like an aluminum driver.  John Strohbeen is a genius.

My understanding is similar to @bondmanp but the variance I recall being mentioned I believe by John Strohbeen, maybe somewhere in his blog on OHM site, is version to version over the years more so than model to model. Not sure. A call or email to Ohm would probably provide a more concrete answer. Would be interested in the answer. I think I recall aluminum being mentioned recently with at least some latest versions as well. Mine are one generation older....series 3, pretty sure they are not aluminum. THere are 4 generations/versions over the years since the early 80’s: original usually designated X, series 2 and series 3 usually designated X00 and current line designated X000.

They are great jump on a pair ASAP!!

I've been consulting with John Strohbeen since the late 80's regarding my Walsh 4's.  One thing I love about the man is his direct answers to direct questions; no hesitation, no BS, just a straight answer. Here's a sample of some of his answers over the years.

Q. The felt on the backside of the cans are coming unglued and curling at the edges, should I re-glue them?

A. Don't bother, peel them off, sound wise they make no difference.  They're there because some people hear better with their eyes than ears.

Q.  The 'tufflex' batting inside my cabinets have disintegrated, can I buy replacements from you?

A. You mentioned that your wife makes quilts; well, steal some batting from her stash, about 1" thick put them 1/3 of the way down the cabinets making sure that they're tucked into the corners and you're good to go. (worked like a charm)

Q. For a few years you were using aluminum tweeters and now it appears you've gone back to soft dome.  Why?

A. Aluminum tweeters spec out better but I just don't like their sound so I went back to the soft dome.

See, you don't have to Google ad nauseam and get wrapped up in analysis paralysis, just call John.
