Ohm SSC-4900

The Super Sound Cylinder has all the sonic attributes that have made the rest of the Walsh family a standby in stereos and home theater systems across the world, but in a sleek, cylindrical form. This cabinet design allows us to make a lighter weight product that takes up less space in your room, without compromising the sound. Our years of experience making smaller Sound Cylinders in the 80’s give us the ability to expertly design and construct cabinets in this shape, which inherently eliminates the resonance and reflection problems characteristic of designs with corners. The designation 4900 means that the driver is just short of a 5000, having only one switch instead of four. (Up for larger rooms, down for smaller rooms.)

The perforated metal can permanently mounted on the driver is covered with a slightly larger, cloth-covered can (grill.) Earlier models used cabinets made from compressed paper and stood on platstic spikes. Later we moved to a wooden cabinet with a circular plinth. Inputs were mounted in a variety of configurations.

Service OptionsPriceOrder
Low Repair

If there is very little sound and it is scratchy, buzzy, or it rattles in the low frequency range, then a low repair is necessary. We must receive both speakers from you so that we can match them both to the good one.

$600 2
High Repair

When the system is very dull sounding but most of the sound is acceptable, it usually indicates that a high repair is necessary. Sometimes this is only noticed when one speaker is compared to another. We must receive both of your drivers so that we can match them both to the good one.

$300
Repair / Replace Metal Can

The metal can is the protective cover enclosing the driver. This should not be removed except at the Ohm factory. If third-party repairs are attempted, the final repair cost will be higher to fix whatever additional damage is done. However, a small cosmetic dent in the area opposite the wires will have no effect on the sound. These are sold and installed only at the factory after the drivers have been tested and found to be working properly.

$120 2
Grill

The grill is the cloth-covered can that lifts off of the speaker to reveal another can, which houses the driver. We need yours back to repair / rebuild in order to ensure a proper fit. If you do not have the original cloth-covered grill, please give us a call to discuss your options.
