Cables For OHM Speakers


I have the new series Ohm Walsh 2000 series. Using signal cable. What kinds of cables mate well with the Ohm speaker line up.. I should add very affordable. Audio Art is on my short list. I have a tube pre and SS amp/250wpc.

I have sold Ohms in the past and my current #1 speakers are omnidirectional Mirage OMD-15s, so I'm very familiar with the tonal balance, dispersion pattern, and imaging of omni's like yours. I just put in new speaker cables--the Zu Cable Libtecs, and they are WONDERFUL! They are 11 gauge, yet are a little less than 1/2" in diameter. They use a proprietary winding that retains the phase relationships as evidenced by stronger bass, bigger, fuller soundstage and better imaging. Granted, the list price is $1199/pair, but Zu's promotional dep't puts a few pairs out on eBay with a starting bid of $1 to stir up some word of mouth. The $1200 Libtecs typically go for $250-300 there.

To keep it inexpensive watch eBay for are the Zu Wax speaker cables. They list at $599 but typically auction at $125-150/10' pair on eBay from Zupromos. They are brand new with Zu's normal 60-day trial/return policy.

Have you tried reaching out to Ohm Acoustics and Jon Stohbeen? He could probably lead you in the right direction. I can tell you what not to use. I have a pair of vintage Ohm Walsh 2s that I used a set of Acoustic Research clearance 12AWG speaker wire from Parts Exp and man the highs were harsh. The amp I was using was a Phase Linear 700B @ the time. I may try some Blue Jeans Cable Belden wire next. Good Luck
