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


Hi,

I'd love to hear the impressions of people who've actually spent some time with these speakers to share their sense of their plusses and minuses. Mapman here on Audiogon is a big fan, and has shared lots on them, but I'm wondering who else might be familiar with them.

I have a 9 CD Time/Life 50s CD collection. This includes many popular tracks from that decade and sound like it must be remastered. Most of it is mono recordings. I've found remastered mono recordings from this era sound quite spectacular on my system! Solid imaging, big soundstage (more between speakers only though in comparison to stereo) and detail abounds, even with massed strings. Top notch audio candy!

Other mono 50's remasters sound top notch as well. One that comes to mind is a 2-cd Chuck Berry collection I have. I never realized this stuff could sound so good when I used to hear it on the radio as a kid.
I second the Aimee Mann/Lost in Space, great album! I also have a double set of her live-can't remember the actual name of the set, DVD and CD, good stuff there. I also second most of Steely Dan and Sade. Just all around good listening.

It is amazing to hear the major differences in the source material, and usally, it is the thing that lets me down the most, not the hardware. Really well recorded music is just so stunning on the Ohm's, obviously, just okay recorded music is just that. I would rather have just okay music than none at all though! Tim
Bondmanp I've got all the Aimee Mann albums, so I'll be checking them out soon. The copy of Lost in Space that I have is a double disc that has a mostly live second disc. Is this the one you're talking about??? I also have all the Til Tuesday albums. The only one I've listened to is the Welcome Home Disc, which sounds great.

Joefish - I think that's the CD, but it is a copied CD-R that someone gave me years ago; no live second disc. I have Welcome Home on vinyl, but since I am only on the letter "C" in my alphabetical quest to listen and digitize (in real time) my vinyl, it will be some time before I get to it. But I recall that LP as being a good sounding one even on the mid-fi gear I owned back in the 80s when I first got it.
