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.

So it's Saturday and I'm suppose to do some pre tax work for the CPA but I'll do that later...hehehe
After holding of on digging in to the crossover board, I finally said
"to hell with caution" and removed the the whole board...barabing
It is amazing how complicated and convoluted the whole design is.
The switching network can not do anything positive for the audio signal. No oxygen free copper as far as the eye can see and plenty of HMG.......Hot melt glue lol
So all that is going bye bye, a new design for the tweeter modules
with micro adjustability for time alignment and the Rear tweeter will have a volume control. The top plate where the Walsh driver is attached will be made from a sandwich of  aluminum, and rubber and I'm decoupling the plate from the cabinet as much as possible.

So........that's it for now.........🇸🇪



I posted some new system pics today.  Same ohms except Ls got a room promotion. 
I went to visit peterr53 today and found out something interesting about my Ohm-Walsh 2.2000 speakers. They need more than the 200W/channel that I am currently using (Parasound 1500). When we hooked up the speakers to his 1,000 w/channel system, the sound I originally expected came through.

We played the sample I use (intro to Money for Nothing - Dire Straights) with some revealing drum whacks. They sounded correct. Now I know why my 4XOs sound good with the same amp; they require just enough power from the amp. Funny how threshold situations can cause all sorts of confusion. So mystery solved! Now I have to start the search for more amp power.

Peterr53 has already outlined his system here, but hearing it in person is amazing. His subs (18") blow away any I have heard to date. The whole house shakes and you think you have been punched in the chest by Mike Tyson. Very viseral and impressive.

He previewed an action movie and the added bass really made it an experience to remember; better than the local cinema sound for sure. He claims 8 Hz and I believe it.

I can't wait to hear the finished product of his Walsh 5 modification.
Good morning my friend...
Its always fun to meet new forum member in the flesh.
Tate was kind enough to bring his 2/2000 and at a precursory listen
I was pleasantly surprised. Tate left the speakers for me to do some 
deep deep testing and some measurements when I get a chance so we'll find out
how they measure in a few days......

The Ambien is asking me to lay down the iPad before I say something I'll regret
in the morning...🇸🇪
