    I have to choose between speakers...

    Any comments on the OHM model Ls, the Mission 770 Freedom Mk1 and the Tannoy c-8? How do they compare between each other? I'm a rookie in the audio buisness and i'm still trying to figure stuff out

    Ohm H woofer repair advice?

    Hi everyone, I'm new to vintage speakers and hi fi in general. I bought a pair of Ohm H speakers today and it looks like the woofers blew out their foam surrounds. Am I right that this only requires a refoam? Both woofers were vibrating with music, and nothing else that I can see is torn. If...

    Ohm+M&K making vintage audio fun again

    Just finished up two lingering projects and I'm really enjoying the test runs. Lately it feels like it's just been negatives. Amps failing, speaker restos hitting snags..starting to question why all the time and money on this old crap. Not enough chilling out and enjoying. Yet here I am...

    Marantz 140 - 2 ohm load

    Hello! I have a Marantz 140 with new main caps ( 2 x 15 000uf Mundorf) also 100% recapped and I'm wondering if I can run the 140 with my actual pair of Cerwin Vega D7 with a pair of Cerwin Vega D9 (system A + B from Marantz 3600). Am I better to add a second Marantz 140 to run the D9s? I heard...

    Ohm FRS7

    Any one have any experience with these? Picked up a pair over the holiday. The previous changed the crossovers to three way and put a 10" gmi woofer in rear replacing the passive radiators. Running these with a Marantz 2220B and at 10 O'clock to 2 on the volume these speakers are incredible.

    Advice: Ohm B’s and Phillips 212 tt

    I have the opportunity to purchase the above kit for $150 for both. Seems like a good price sight unseen. Waiting to hear about their condition. Has any one heard the Ohm B’s? Replacement woofers seem VERY P pricey. The TT needs a new belt which is no problem. Any advice welcome. Thanks

    RSE and Ohm B bookshelf speaker advice

    Hey all, been lurking for a while, but my first post. I came in to a set of RSE's with EMIT tweeters for the lovely price of $0. Finally got a chance to test them out and uh oh... no foam surrounds and what looks like a blown voice coil to my untrained eye. I did something I know I shouldn't...

    More (Emotiva) power for the rear channels?

    Good Morning all, Just toying with an idea and I figured I would throw this at the wall and see if it sticks. Currently driving Ohm model H on the front channel (8/6 ohm @ 20-100W) and Stacked Ohm C2's in parallel on the rear channels (Each 8/6 @ 20-120W) I believe. All are upgraded from Ohm...

    B&W 705 Nice looking paperweights

    Ok... quick preamble: I ain't no audiophile--as will be evident. Brevity - Not my strong suit. But... I do have an affinity for quality products, and I do spend a lot of time listening to music across many genres. So a few years ago I run across a pair of Ohm c2's at a garage sale. I bought...

    Subwoofer for Ohm C2s

    I recently came into a fantastic pair of Ohm C2s for free. They work well with my pretty cheap Yamaha R-S202 receiver, but I was wondering if a subwoofer would offer any great improvement to my listening experience. I'm a college student, so I don't have anywhere near enough money to get a...
