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.

Let us know how the subdudes work out. Should take things up a few levels still I suspect. They did for me. Exact same true with Isoacoustics brand isolating stands I use with small monitors in another similar room. I’ve used those with my Triangle monitors and just this week with an old Pair of Boston Acoustics A40 series ii speakers I bought 30 years ago and just refoamed this week. Wow! An audiophile could pick up a pair of those for $50 or less at a thrift store, fix them up with a $20 kit, and be nicely set in many smaller to medium size rooms. Not OHMS but they really sound good these days with modern high quality gear driving them. You definitely have to spend 10X as much or more to do better with new stuff.

I'd like to be able to hear the Isotar soft dome tweeters in my Dynaudios used in teh OHMs.   Would probably up the cost even more though.

Bondmap,
Thanks for the link. I too am a satisfied Sound Anchor customer. :)

Mapman,
I will definitely report back this evening. Really glad you mentioned the Subdudes because funny enough I have really been wanting to try experimenting with raising the Ohms up a big since I a tall guy and have a fairly high listening chair and oh jee I just happen to have two of them sitting in a closet within 5 ft of my listening room. So that will kill two birds with one stone.

Now that's what I call fate!
Ok so far fiddle with toe in vs toe out. Prior I had them toed out about 1 inch. I then tried 1 inch toed in and that did some added rear ambient energy but 2 inch seems to enhanced that effect and made everything sound a bit bigger not just in the rear but the fronts. Definitely a duller upper range but after I fiddle with the iOS platforms I can run Dirac and it can compensate for the recessed highs. More incoming...
