Nice Pair of Ohm Walsh 4 Speakers - $380 (Whidbey Island)
QR Code Link to This Post
In his Stereo Review article on them (June 1984) Mr. Hirsch commented on their smoothness and sound stage. He ended with: "In case I have not made the point sufficiently clear, this is a superb-sounding speaker - not inexpensive by any means, but worth every cent of its price."
If you do some research, you will find that after about 20 years, the surrounds on the drivers need to be redone. (Ohm is still around and can do this for you.) My friend, as his hobby, acquired broken speakers and fixed them. I don't know what he did to these, but I think it likely he had them redone because the symptom of surround failure is lack of bass. These have loud and precise bass in spades. All of his ten pairs of speakers were working fine when I checked them.
I have these set up in my garage and you can test them out with a Yamaha power amp with 90 watts per channel. They are located in Greenbank, which is in the middle of Whidbey, 17 miles from the Clinton ferry landing and about 55 minutes from Anacortes. I am often in Anacortes and Bellevue if you want to meet.
If you're serious, give me a phone number. I don't really need to pointlessly chat about them if you're not interested.
Based on recent experiences, please check with your significant other before telling me you really want to buy these.
Thanks.
