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.

I really appreciate the advice. It gets me more excited to get them. I know there was a reason I wanted to give them a chance in the first place. 
Any experience with the sat 4 they make?
I am trying to decide if I should get those for the back two surrounds as they will be closer to the seating position as I will be pretty close to the back wall.
tuthman - I haven't heard the sat 4's, but the long range plan is to replace the back surrounds with small Ohms at some point.  Remember, they also come with a 120-day return option.  OTOH, in my system, the Pioneer MCACC room EQ I use for surround sound does a good job of smoothing out any gross differences between the Paradigm Atoms and the Ohms.  Honestly, if I was starting from scratch, I might skip the surround back channels in favor of Atmos channels.  But financial realities mean that I am largely done for the forseeable future.
Hi enginedr1960...
(And it looks like the tread is getting some action).

The idea is to keep the cabinets dimension on the outside the same,
but the inside will be remotely nothing like Mr. Walsh had originally designed. So basically what I'm making is a box in a box. Between the two walls there will be butyl rubber and sand. Due to the the way I'm stiffening the cabinet walls I will have to compartamentalize the sand pockets but I might drill holes between the layers. It'll be bitchin I promise. Any down side to all this? Yes the speaker will be way heavier, but hey that's OK with me. Next project this morning is 
Tate's 2/2000 I'll take pictures and post them later....

As one of my favorite YouTube personalities say when signing of...

Keep your d.... in the vice ;) 🇸🇪

So after an afternoon of working on the 2/2000's I found a few reasons to cheer. I took em apart as one of the paper tubes were loose which set up some strange frequency issues/ chuffing which sucks. After looking at the sparse wadding, loose paper roll and a cabinet ringing from no sound deadening, I asked Tate if it was OK if I could do some changes, he declined but I felt that he had loaned me the speakers so I did some anyway......Sorry bud lol

So I installed the velocity stacks, sound deadening/ polyfill, caulked the air leaks. I realized that there was a switch on the x-over played around with it for a while and......Voila' I also rotated the "Can" so 
the tweeter was pointing towards the listening position.

So why isn't Ohm doing this to the speakers is beyond me, now it's sounding fantastic with great imaging proper midrange and overall 
a great speaker.

Dont give up, anything is possible if you try hard enough......🇸🇪
The Question to ask is who did the 2 to 2000 upgrade . I had my Walsh 2s upgraded by Ohm every thing was done wright  they made new top plates for the 2000 drivers which are larger than the 2 drivers  and the tweeter orientation was correct .
