Ohm Acoustics is one of those perpetually under the radar speaker companies. Founded 1971 in Brooklyn, N.Y., the company specializes in hand-crafted omni-directional speakers. Chances are you've never heard an omni, so some explanation is in order: Most "normal" box speakers only project sound forward, but Ohm's omnidirectional Walsh speakers have 360-degree radiation, so they produce a bigger soundfield. Ohm speakers sound great over a much wider area than most audiophile products. You're not locked down to one "sweet spot."

I interviewed John a few months ago about Tech Hi-Fi,    • Buying and selling audio in the 1960s...  

The grille on top of the speaker is a little crooked because I had taken it off and didn't reseat it properly. My bad!
