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.

ps I’ve heard Sonus faber and often considered owning a pair for much the same reason. I find the tonality of SF and OHM when done well to be somewhat similar.

I have a pair of Dynaudio Contour monitors I run as well. Has the Danish rather than Italian aesthetic but I consider them to be a gold standard of good hifi sound for their size and also with excellent build quality like good Sonus Faber. I acquired them prior to my current OHMs to see if I could settle on a smaller monitor. If the bass extension was just a tad better, and the overall presentation just a bit more lifelike to me, it might have happened.

Who doesn’t like beautifully crafted things? Still always different strokes.... Cheers and Good Listening!
Mapman, you, yourself, are a true gentleman!  I don't frequent Audiogon as much as I did perhaps a year ago, but I've always enjoyed and benefited from your posts.  Cheers back at you.
One of the things I have enjoyed throughout this very lengthy thread, is that there may be differing opinions on the sound, the quality of build, many things in general about Ohm, but it seems to stay very civil. In this day and age of folks hiding behind the almighty computer, this is nice. It is good to hear differing opinions, yet not get smacked for it! The knowledge base in this thread has been very good, and very helpful for many I would say! 

I have SF Cremonas with a Pathos amplifier and CDP player in my living room.  It looks great and sounds very nice.  I have my Ohms, subs, and ugly black boxes in my listening room.  Doesn't look nearly as nice, but sounds a helluva lot better (to my ear, anyway).  Different tools for different jobs.
If I had ugly black boxes in my listening room I'd have to keep my eyes shut!  :)
