Are the new Ohm Walsh speakers Audiophile quality?

I just got a pair of Ohm 1000s delivered about 2 weeks ago. I'm very pleased with them. While I'm still experimenting a bit with the final placement, I've already made the decision to keep them. No need for any more of the 120 day trial period.

Are they "audiophile"? I don't know as I don't use that word. It is a meaningless term in my book due to the baggage attached to it. However, I do find the Ohms very natural sounding when playing well recorded, un-processed, un-amplified voices and instruments. One of my favorite features so far is the enormous sweet spot. One can move around the room and maintain a stable image -- just like with live music. It is nice being freed from the small "head in the vice" sweet spot many other speakers have.

Schiit didn’t have many professional reviews until they did an ad buy in Stereophile...then their high end DAC was reviewed. Its just how the game usually works. BTW, the Ohms are incredible. 

My Ohm Walsh Tall 2000's are just over 2 weeks old and I absolutely love them. The sound is unique in it's presentation compared to any other speaker I have heard. Speakers typically try to reproduce the music. The Ohm's just present them in a live-like soundstage. The mids and highs are natural yet they are not fatiguing to listen to. These speakers do very well with all types of music, in particular jazz and female vocals. 

I have a few more months before this trial period is up, yet I have no plans to send these back. Good thing, because it would have been a real pain to pack these up and ship back!

Ohm speakers have been in business since the late 1960's.  My brother had a pair of Model Fs. What speakers are you using now? What do you want out of your speakers? I think you will not be disappointed. I own a pair of 3000. 

Greetings,

I am considering a pair of current model 2000. Mostly positive reviews. However, found one thread where a few people seem to think the quality is no where near what it was 15+ years ago, especially the quality of drivers.
I keep my systems for 15-10 years, and plan to not have any upgrades during that time. Quality and long term reliability is important to me. 
Any comments from those having both new and old systems?
I would prefer to buy new models for cosmetic purposes. Older ones look too bulky for my taste and my room. So, would rather have new than buy and upgrade older model. 

Thanks much.
