The Ohm SSC-4900's have arrived. They got here on Thursday - There is a thread on Home Theater forum which allows posting pictures, so anyone is welcome to visit that thread. It is under forums, the Loudspeakers and Subwoofers sub-forum. I am not ... 
Grail T5 Speakers
I had several emails with Mr. Grail. He claims to have been a designer for several speaker companies. When I asked which they were, he stopped emailing me. I was actually interested in trying a pair out, but am now glad I didn't.  
Who wants the best improvement in their system EVER!
I have always found that listening to my mother-in-law for 15 minutes before a music session really makes any system sound worlds better.

I talked to John Strohbeen today, and he is "pretty sure" the speakers will ship on Monday, April 23. The new foam inserts for the boxes apparently working well, and they are back on schedule.

Time for an update: the speakers have not shipped yet. They are built, but the Ohm is having a hard time with shipping boxes. Another customer had his damaged during shipping, so they are trying something different for the cylinder speakers.While ...

We received an email this morning that the Ohms will ship next week. We are getting stoked about receiving the speakers. Does anyone know how to imbed pics here? 
Speakers that work well with Hegel H30 amp (10K or less)?
Take a hard look at the Bryston Model T Signatures. They have that holographic imaging you want, are relatively easy to drive, and are one of the best music makers I have ever heard.

I just received the newest copy of Stereophile. The PS Audio M700 amplifiers, at $2998 per pair and 350 WPC into 8 ohms / 700 WPC into 4 ohms, made CLASS A in their latest listing.The Ohm speakers will be driven by some terrific electronics.

I received a couple of emails about using a subwoofer with the SSC-4900's. As this process unfolds, we have a Power Sound Audio V-3601 and an Axiom EP-800. Both subs are powerful, with the Axiom being world class to 13 Hz in a sealed design with t...

dep14 - Please post additional information as you get it, especially if you pull the trigger on some new Ohm speakers for your system. What pre-amp / amp set up are you using?  
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
michiganbuckeye (Thanksgivings must be fun a your place :) ) ..The 4900 will have more output in the all important 50-5000 Hz range, which is the primary reason for my decision. The M700 mono amps will deliver about 500 WPC into the nominal 6 ohm ...

1extreme - Excellent question. Our room is 44 feet long, 14.5 feet wide, and a little over 7 feet tall. It's a basement room with the classic live end (where the speakers are) and dead end in the back of the room. John confirmed that this is ideal...

It just occurred to me to add - the SSC-4900's are scheduled to be produced next week. The review will be on going as the speakers arrive, are broken in, and a series of music and movie selections are used for demo purposes.All listening, even mov... 
I guess I have to sell my Tekton Enzos
James ... When you can point to a proper blind test that shows a deficiency from one properly designed, neutral amp to another, I will spend a lot more money. I have done 100's of blind tests on amps, and have read 100's more. When the "blindfolds... 
I guess I have to sell my Tekton Enzos
Two years ago, I acquired a passive pre-amp switch box for use in evaluating speakers under blind conditions. The two channel signal from a Marantz 7703 is fed into the passive pre-amp, with an "A" and "B" left/right signal then feeding an Axiom 1...
