Zavato - Just as a point of interest, while the current Ohms are not full-range omnis, they can be ordered configured for something close. The directional tweeter rolls in above ~7kHz, so in this respect, the current Ohm Walsh line is not fully omnidirectional. But the attenuation to the rear of the cans is accomplished with a physical damper. IIRC, John can provide drivers without this damping by special order, meaning they would be true omnis up to around 7kHz.
New lease on life for a pair of Ohm F's
I happened upon a free pair of Ohm F speakers with genuine Walsh drivers. Unfortunately, these drivers suffered from the typical surround rot which then pulled down and distirted the spider.
Ohm can not fix these, and what they offer as a replacement drive module is not a Walsh driver.
Dale Harder can do the job, but the cost is more than I can swing right now.
I remeber hearing F's oh maybe 35 years ago, and was really taken aback- pleasantly, by what I heard. Sure, 35 years of audio memory is unreliable, and maybe the F's were just much better than the EPI 100's I was used to, but somehow I still think the F's, having no crossover, have a real possibility to still be sonic gold.
Suggestions are welcome-
