Greetings all - I recently ordered a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder speakers, or SSC-4900’s. They are in the middle of the Ohm Walsh lineup, and are about 38 inches tall and the cylinder cabinets about 12.5 inches in diameter. Specs are listed at 88 dB for a 2.8 V input, and a response curve of +/- 3 dB from 25 to 20,000 Hz. This whole process is part of a “high …

John, I am just sending a note to express how pleased I am with my Super Sound Cylinders. I have been living with them for about six months now and I couldn’t be more pleased with the sound. I have an Emotiva XPA amplifier driving them and every time I turn the system on, even after six months, I am impressed all over again. I will sit and listen for extended periods turning up the …

With over 120,000 units sold, it’s a wonder Ohm Acoustics is not more of a household name. Founded in 1972 and based in Brooklyn, New York (where the speakers are manufactured), Ohm Acoustics designs and manufactures speakers utilizing the technology of Lincoln Walsh’s Coherent Line Source (CLS) driver, which was patented in 1969. Since Ohm’s inception, it has endured the cycles …

Let’s pause on the Hook main theme by John Williams. And let’s talk about my new speakers. Cause they’re mine. I – there’s no way that they’re going back. They’re Ohm Walsh 2000’s. Now, “Ohm” is a description of a speaker statistic or a driver statistic, so if you look up “Ohm”, you’re not gonna find these immediately. “Walsh” is the name of the father from Goonies, …

I don’t often review items I purchase but I will make an exception in this case. I am the original owner of Ohm F loudspeakers that I purchased February 1981. Knowing the power requirements, I also purchased a Nikko Alpha 440 power amp, Beta 40 preamp etc. at the same time. In my younger years the Ohms were driven hard, always close to 200 watts and for many years. They served me well! As the …
