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

I wonder how many "Ohmies"-or even those not necessarily Ohm lovers, managed to get to the NY Audio Show this past weekend? Anybody get to visit the Ohm Acoustics room and visit with John S. and listen to his setup? Am curious as to how well it all went down. I managed to catch a couple small snippets from my google searching, but nothing of much substance. Hopefully maybe some others will chime in at some point.

I do think it was a good thing(Hopefully) that John decided to attend, if nothing else to get more exposure, although I wonder if he/Ohm really needs it, and also if anyone in the mainstream audio nerdophilia really cares? Anyway.....

I went on Sunday.  What a kick to meet John in person!  I told him how his speakers bring beauty into my daily routine.  He set up a pair of Walsh 1000s fed by a Peachtree integrated (150 watts/side, internal DAC), and used a $15 DVD player as a source.  The sound was good, and the fellow in front of me bought a pair on the spot. My son-in-law, who accompanied me, almost pulled the trigger as well, until he called my daughter, and that was the end of that.

But the rooms all suffered from an upper bass boom, and Ohm's room was no exception.  I wondered aloud if moving the speakers a little further into the room would be better, but John's assistant said he had trieed that, and the positioning was as good as possible.  I played a track from a PT CD that sounded lovely, lots of transient detail with no etch or excess brightness.

John also brought a lot of potted plants along (I am aware of their desireable acoustic properties).  One of the simplest setups at the show, and one of the best sounding, except for the systems that DSP'd the room boom out.  When you factor in the prices of the gear and speakers, I think Ohm's room was a standout.

To me, though, John is a legend in this business, and it was a thrill to shake his hand. 

Bond, glad you went and got to experience the setup, and also to meet John in person. Would love to have gone, but not close to NY, and work was beckoning anyway.

Shows can be tough, but figured Ohm might be a bit easier to place in those rooms and get reasonable music out of them.

Nice to hear an account of how things fared, thanks for the note!
