Kenjay yes I know OHM Walsh will perform only as well as what is fed them from years of practical experience with mine at home. The outlaw amp and Bluesound node DAC did a respectable job but for sure not . The powered subs in the F5015s surely helped out a lot . The "room" they were playing in was a huge challenge and quite limiting in comparison to most others at the show IMHO, though again it did give the OHMs a chance to show what they do most uniquely which is provide a coherent soundstage from most any listening location. Not everyone cares about that though I do a lot! The surround setup in teh actual library room was much more par for the course. John Strohbeen does seem to like to showcase what his speakers can do with more common gear upstream. OHm is smart in not limiting their appeal to high end audio fans IMHO. Why target such a narrow and competitive (and very set in their ways often) environment? The OHm design can play quite well in that space. I’ve invested quite a bit of time and money to max out mine at home and believe me most any change I have made (and I’ve made a bunch) can be clearly heard with attentive ears.
If attending Capital Audiofest 2018, can you provide your review of the Ohm F-5015s
Forum members,
There is precious little online reviewing the performance of the Ohm F-5015 speakers with the integrated subwoofers. If you were able to listen to them live at Capital Audiofest 2018 this weekend, please provide your thoughts as I am considering getting a pair.
My alternative is to get the F5000 drivers (no subwoofer) to replace the now degraded drivers in my acquired and no longer functioning Ohm F's. These will be my great room speakers. Don't have any electronics yet, will get that after the speaker decision and purchase.
Thanks in advance
