Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
@craigsub Would love an update on the 4900's  Really your whole set-up.  Pros/Cons vs your other speakers as you have a ton it seems?   The PSaudio amps, how are they now that you have had them for a while.  Always a bit scared of class D?Even pic... 
I pulled the trigger, I bought OHM Walsh Micro Tall Speakers...
@audioman58 , I totally agree.  I’ve had the chance to audition ohms both old and new. I like a lot of what I hear.  When I’ve gone digging it does appear parts are pretty inexpensive. (Given what others use in a 6k pair of speakers)  I’m left won... 
Classe CA301 or BAT VK-500
I would go with the BAT.  Very nice amp, powerful and refined.  The build quality inside the BAT amps is pretty remarkable,

WCSS, which tubes are in your REX pre-amp?6c19s? (stock), or do you have the X-Pak and the 6h30 tubes?  (or the rare 5881's?  Would be good to know.Viber, I'm not fortunate enough to have the 600 or 655, I have a slightly older VK250.  I don't wan...

The big BAT solid state amps are beasts, they punch even more powerful than spec.i don’t think the are as “bright” as a Krell.  Bass is close, smoother than a Krell I think.Victor builds good stuff.

The amount of hilarity in this thread gets better by the day.It's a great read on so many levels.  If I owned an audio store, this would be one of my favorite threads of all time.

@jstrohbeen I read your post with great interest.  I too believe in the law of diminishing returns in just about everything, including audio.  That said, always interested in those that push the envelope. If you were to do (and maybe you have) a "...

I'm enjoying this thread.  Thanks.  @craigsub, it would be tremendous to get some thoughts vs your many other speakers, you have many and many that folks have heard.  Would love strengths vs weaknesses etc.good stuff 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
@craigsub - any new updates or thoughts?  Would love a reference on the picture as to size vs other speakers.Are they neutral, bright, laid back?  How is the bass?  Super tight, or a nice neutral amount.  Seems as though they should kick it out ba...

avcr797 posts05-09-2018 9:14pmJust plugged in the the simaudio amp since it’s been on for about 3 weeks and wow... you don’t realize how good something is unless you have something to compare it to. The Rowland just demolishes it in finesse, detai...

I believe they use SonoTubes - or concrete forming tubes.  Same thing SVS uses in their tube subwoofers.  Honestly, they seem to work really well in the subwoofer format, and the weight savings are really nice.  I've wondered if it is actually a m... 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
Not looking to argue at all myself. Looking at old pictures of Ohms, it simply had me wondering. What I have heard from their speakers I like them. As far as an off the shelf driver, Ohm (like most companies) don’t make their own drivers from what... 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
Yeah, figured it was a 12 inch. Should be tons of bass in that big tube. As for that link... I think it’s a bit misleading. I suspect they are using an off the shelf, or slightly modified full range driver. Doesn’t bug me, just curious as to who m... 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
Looking forward to your reviews, particularly comparisons vs your other speakers as you have a boatload.How is the bass response?  Do they have 10inch or 12 inch downfiring drivers?Any idea what kind of woofer/tweeter are used?  was the woofer "ex...
