Anyone dislike Ohm Walsh speakers?


Hello,

I live in Southeast Asia in a country where there is no way to audition a pair of Ohm Walsh speakers. I'm looking to buy a pair of Ohm Walsh 2000's for music/home theater. 

I have seen rave reviews about the Ohm Walshs and like the idea of an omnidirectional speaker. But I'm hesitant since I would like this to be my "forever" pair of speakers and am paying $500 for shipping. Has anyone here heard a pair of Ohm Walshs and not liked them? Just trying to figure out my chances of making a purchase that I might regret. Thank you so much everyone!

I have no skin in this game, but I always loved the F back in the day. I didn’t work for TechHiFi but against them…or I would certainly have gotten a pair!  The current Ohms are different in design than Fs, with batting on 90 degrees to make them at best “semi-omni” and less needful of placement away from the wall., emr.  MF, what relevance does stacked AR 3a’s have to this discussion?  Are all vintage speakers alike?  AM58, what model Ohm Xover were you disecting? 2000’s or some old sh**tbox from the 70s?  If 200s are in the OPs wheelhouse budgetarily, there aren’t many better choices he could make. A used pair of Revel F208s maybe, if he could find them might be equivalent.
