Thanks for your insight on the Walsh 5 Series 3. I have owned Ohm products in the distant past (still have the Ohm Fs in the basement). See link below.

What is your opinion in using speakers of such wide dispersion characteristics in a multi-channel system (audio only such as multi-channel SACD; *not* Home Theater)? The reason I ask is because I have heard that certain types of speakers, such as dipoles (which I realize that the Walsh 5 is not) should not be used in a music multi-channel system; that only direct radiators should be employed instead in such a system.

But based on the wonderful experiences I had with the Ohm F (and auditions with the Huff System 3) the prospects of having five Walsh 5 speakers in a SACD multi-channel system sounds very tempting. But it could be a disaster. I have written Ohm about this type of set up but they have not responded. I don't think I'm serious.

Thanks.
