| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Frap, or anyone else, count me in as a future purchaser of a new and improved version of the Ohm F utilizing a true Walsh designed driver. If the speaker had a MSRP of around $5000, it may cause many audiophiles to give them a serious audition. I ... | |

| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? I owned a pair of Ohm F's for a couple of years and loved them. I sold them thinking I would be able to pick up a pair of the new and improved ones down the road. Ha! Man was I wrong. Why can't someone or company deconstruct and then commercially ... | |
