Ohm F-5015 used purchase

Hmmm ok I was under the impression powered subs were used in the f5015 but apparently not necessarily the case.

F5015 was classified as a "prototype" design last I noticed so its possible not all are similar. I heard a pair at Capital Audiofest in 2018 and I believe those used built in powered subs and an external crossover but not certain.

You could probably call Ohm and ask about this particular pair if you wanted more info. They are typically very good about supporting all Ohm speakers any way they can.

Yep the current 5015s have built in powered subs but not the crossover, so the ones you are looking at are different.   

He bought these 5 years ago, he didn’t want a mounted amp on the box so Ohm sent an external amp. I talked to John at Ohm today, they’re beta speakers somewhat customizable and take 3 months to build. I’m sure there is subtle differences on some units, John said only a few dozen exist.

I’d love to see photos of others out there but I can’t find much online at all.

These are the ones I heard at Capital Audiofest 2018:
