Ohm Acoustic Corp., Brooklyn NY
Greetings All
This is, unfortunately, an uneasy post. I was persuaded to dive into a buying a set of Ohm Acoustics Walsh Tall 3000. My very funky factory loft with 11' ceilings, not a single straight wall, 145 yr. old very wide & distressed oak flooring other issues dictated an Ohm Acoustics design. However, placed/paid for my speakers 11/06/2021. Speaking with Ohm indicates I can expect delivery around the middle of June. That date has krept forever onward. Yes, there was a snafu at Ohm's end that they readily recognize. But poor, poor, customer relations. I have spoken with Jake several times over the last 7 months; quite the gentleman. However, I just no longer have a good feeling that Ohm Acoustics is on top of their game. And the last thing I want to do is spend about $6,000 for a product where the company is gone, out of business.
Crutchfield can ship me a set of Klipsch Cornwall IV this afternoon. My decision process 7+ months ago had me considering either the Cornwalls or the Walsh Talls. I went with the Walsh Talls. Hey, it still may be sonically the better decision. But until I get delivery of my Ohms I'll never know.
Thoughts?
Thanks, I was looking at those as well as blue jeans cable 10 white, audioquest type 8, Analysis Plus Black Oval 12 and possibly signal cable. I need a 16 foot pair and I want to keep the price below $500. I will be replacing a 35 year old set of monster M1 speaker cables. I still would like to hear from @veemike.

Whatever you like best will do the job. The 4s11 uses the star quad winding, which can help with EF. That said, those Monster M1's are doing the job just as well. Unless you need longer cables, keep the Monsters and spend the money on a nice quality beer, bottle of your favorite beverage, or edible of choice and any of those will give you a nice night or two of relaxation while you enjoy your music. I suspect if you have clean Monster M1 cables, you can easily sell them and cover the cost of the Canare cable, and maybe have a few bucks leftover for a beer. |
