Australian Walsh 2000 loudspeaker system (pair)

The Australian OHM ACOUSTICS Walsh Series are available in various stretch cloth finishes. The demo pair are finished in an aboriginal pattern Mina Mina Dreaming by Pauline Napangardi Galagher. There are hundreds of suitable fabrics which can be used, they don't need to be acoustically transparent as they only cover the cabinet panels.
Some examples of cloths used for speakers is on the Linn 530 Series 5 page. We are not suggesting our W2000AU speakers are an alternative to the Linn 530, as ours are an omnidirectional design, and about a quarter the price.

Now also available with timber veneer finishes. Prices vary according to the veneer chosen. Our veneers come from Sharp Panels in Brisbane and they have a wide range available.

The leadtime to have a pair of W2000 speakers made is about 4 weeks, with a $1000 deposit and balance due when they are ready to be delivered. Please contact us by phone or email to place an order or get a freight quote. Free delivery to Brisbane metro areas. 

The W2000 is the second model in the 1000 Series range, and suits room sizes from about 35 to 85 cubic metres. With a standard room height of 2.4m this equates to 15 to 35 square metres.

From the first review of the Thousand Series Ohm Walsh speakers.

"To my ears the Ohm Walsh speakers combine the transparency and transient ability of exotic speakers like electrostatics, but without the drawbacks of directionality, limited dynamic range, and limited bass response. They have excellent stereo imaging along with a spacious, enveloping sound, well-rendered fine detail, and faithfulness to the recording. The Walsh 3000 ups the ante over its predecessors with even more detail, a crisper midrange and smoother response throughout the tonal range with taut, defined bass. They are full, transparent, and effortlessly natural, adapting easily to the requirements of the music from reproducing the most delicate notes of a flute or piano to the full impact of an orchestral crescendo. You just sit back and listen and melt into the music. What’s more, they sound great with any program material, from instrument solos to action movies. Certain speakers are said to be “good rock speakers” or “good jazz speakers,” etc… truly great speakers sound good no matter what you play through them. Vocals are extremely natural, a hallmark of Walsh speakers, and sometimes you can even hear the performers taking in breath between verses. The way they effortless float sonic images in the air really adds to the experience.
