Ohm Speakers, thoughts?


I have long dismissed Ohm speakers as anything that could be competitive in todays state of the art. But of course I want to believe that this "old" American company still has some horsepower left to compete with asian built speakers built by people that take in less money in a week than my dog sitter takes in the couple hours it takes to let my dogs out to crap when I am away for a day :)? The reviews I have read here and there report incredible imaging but what about other aspects of the Ohm 5 II. Any thoughts?

For their time, a really great concept and well executed. Still very good today. I use 4th order active xovers on my 4s (with 1/3rd oct active EQ) with 4th order at 45Hz to stereo active 12" Dayton subs. Added 2" thickcotton batting on all interal walls and braces, too. Yes, pretty large boxes but the casters help. So open, so smooth, so extended at both frequency extremes.
