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

mapman & bondmanp,

One option would be to buy a second Parasound 1500 (used) and run them bridged (mono). This would give 600+W/channel. First, I have to check my home wiring to make sure enough current is reaching the amp (doubly true with 2 amps). The never ending quest...

I am very happy that the 2.2000 upgrade was successful. It was getting depressing that maybe it was a waste of resources.

For now, I will chug along with the 4XOs until I can improve the system.

Sounds like a plan, t8kc.  Keep us posted.

t8 one advantage of Class D is ability to leave them on without running up the power bill.

My circuit breaker generally goes if I power up both ref1000m amps at the same time.  I do one then the other and both are generally left on (as per manufacturer recommendation) from there unless I will be away for an extended period.

Once powered up I have never had the circuit breaker go when playing and I go pretty loud sometimes.

I have had other Class A, Class A/B  amps flip the breakers in the past when running.

An other alternative is to keep my current amp and add a powered subwoofer to unload the low frequencies (>80 Hz) on the Ohms. This might allow the 2.2000s operate on the current amp power while extending the bass range down into the mid 20 Hz area.

Any thoughts on that idea?

Hey Tate.....
Its almost 1:30 and I'm up, I played around just for fun with the 2/2000's and the first reaction was holy shit these are very hard to drive.....As I have a numerical volume control
and I went waaaaaaaaay further then any speaker I own for the same volume level.
The other thing is the way JS told you to aim the speakers is wrong, way wrong.
Just this little of moving the speaker about makes for a much better experience.
They also like to be  back from the back wall 6' worked great. So I think you need a minimum of 500 ponys to get them to sing properly.
I also lifted them up on some books to see if the base was better.....yes
And I think you get better midrange energy emenating closer to ear height.
I will try to get some measurements tomorrow, but I have to see my metal guy
for some laser cut parts asap...

Its coming together nicely.........🇸🇪
