The switches on the Walsh 5's essentially allow +/- 3db adjustments in four ranges: low bass, mid bass, midrange and treble.
These are for purpose of adjusting the response to room acoustics or personal hearing preference.
Sounds like the new drivers are more or less like tipping up the treble using the switches on the 5's. I do this on my right Ohm 5 but not my left to help adjust for the crazy acoustics of my L shaped room. That's the main reason I got the 5's instead of the 300's.
Unfortunately, Ohm does not offer these adjustments on the smaller models these days (they used to years ago ).
Decisions, decisions.
