Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?

Arrgggh! The suspense is torturous ;~)

I second that about the suspense.

I'm a few months away from being able to make a purchase, and am undecided between to 100's and the MWT. I'm really concerned about bass, but then again $700 can buy a lot of sub, especially for a small room.

No pressure, Rebbi, but your experience will have a lot to do with the decision.

I'm curious as well. I've never heard MWTs and this should be the most informative comparison that I know of.

I anticipate the 100s will deliver a sound that is essentially similar but has more authority and meat on the bones, like other much larger, and more expensive designs in a larger room might, at higher, more realistic listening levels, similar to what I have heard in comparing my 100s to Walsh 5s in both my smaller and larger rooms.

For near-field listening at more moderate volumes, I'm not expecting Rebbe will hear much difference worth getting excited about.

Rebbe, for an apples and apples comparison, be sure to compare the standard configuration MWT drivers, not the juiced top end versions that John Strohbeen rigged up for you, if you still have them.

Oh, Rebbe, be sure to include something with some well recorded pipe organ in the shootout.

When all else fails, the low notes on a big pipe organ will really serve to separate the men from the boys!

Yeah- the nearfield experience is also vital to me.

I'm only sitting about 5 to 6 feet away from my current speakers (DefTech BP2006's), and really expect the Talls to be the best choice. Additionally, any house we're likely to move to next will have the same size or smaller room- roughly 15 x 12.

Still, it's exciting to wait to read his impressions.
