Are the new Ohm Walsh speakers Audiophile quality?


Considering buying the Ohm Walsh 2000 Tall but very few reviews has me questioning there quality. Any thoughts?

I have the 2000 series in Teak for about six months now, took a year to receive from purchase. I enjoy the looks and sound field they produce so far as Ive read they may take an entire year to break in. However, the finish is not audiophile quality. Labels glued hastily/crooked, platform crooked, glue residue and light plastic parts including cheap speaker terminals- just not up to par on the fit and finish but do enjoy the experience I am having with the music. I have them paired with an Accuphase integrated which produces a nice marriage.

Sorry but no excuse for quality control, cheap parts, and proper shipping/packaging. Everyone loves the folks at Ohm Walsh, whom I also found helpful and communicative but back to the initial evaluation regarding "audiophile quality" and they are not! I am not comparing them to Magicos at 20k but rather Kef, Sonus Faber, Revel, Bryston, Zu at similar price point. I still enjoy them but must provide honest feedback and not convince myself otherwise bc I spent the 3k that is now 4k.
