Ohm Walsh speakers in the 21st century


Back in the seventies I had a pair of Ohm Walsh 7’s. They were big and bold and could really fill a room with amazing sound. Now, I’m thinking about redoing my system and an old friend asked me about getting Walsh again.  Does anyone here have or at least heard the new line of Walsh Tall speakers? I’ve read they now have a tweeter in them and that they are dampened on the back.

Any input would be appreciated.

I had a pair of the original Ohm Fs back in the mid-1970s. They were great speakers and always regretted selling them.  Fast forward to 2018, and a lot of different speakers in the interim, and I went back to a set of Ohm 1000s. I really enjoy them. A house move last year put them into a bigger room and I briefly thought of moving up to the 2000 or 3000 model, but decided to try a subwoofer first. That turned out to be the perfect solution for me. I don't listen loudly (mid-80 dB range is my general max volume) so the little bit of extra bass turned out to be a great solution without the hassle of buying new speakers, selling the old ones, and probably having to change out an amp, too.  I can highly recommend Ohms if your goal is to enjoy your music versus obsess over equipment issues.
