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.

@bondmanp thanks for the offer. Jersey is a pretty Long drive. Appreciate the offer still. 

@blin116 this could work out as I have to drive back to SFO to catch a plane on the way back. Will be sending you an email!

Here's a new post from Ohm in the news section of their website about their setup at RMAF.

Interesting review and comparison to the Magnepan LRS by Steve Guttenberg....bottom line, while not perfect, he loved the ohm walsh 2000

I'd say the review was pretty spot-on.

So my question to those of you that own one of the models would be about the high end.....  If the crossover is really in the 6-8k range, then I would say that the Walsh driver is carrying most of the load for the midrange and top end except for some of the really high harmonic overtones. 


Guttenberg's comments made it seem that while the speaker has a great midrange and overall presence, it may be lacking in openness or ambience or top end detail or realism....at least as compared to the LRS which is a pretty limited sample.


It would be great if you guys that own the speaker could comment on what your actual experience is and whether you think his portrayal of the top end is correct.
