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 agree the more clean power and current with the ohms the better.   Whether one needs it or not is a different story.  Personally id always go with  more clean power and current for the most fun. 

Js used a high power newer Peachtree amp to demo the ohms at ny audio show last year fwiw.  

Using with powered subs changes the story.      Almost any good quality modest power amp should do very well.     Impedance curves ive seen did not indicate a hard load at higher frequencies.  Power requirements always increase exponentially as the frequency gets lower.   Poor or muddy bass is a double whammy in that it also tends to muddy the midrange.   
*S*  Good, back on topic...roll on, gentlemen.

Ciao, peter, maps...see you on the avenues. ;)
Yes if you use a sub your speaker will work less hard no doubt, but only one problem.
The unit (receiver,integrated) must have a X-over or it's going to be a little hard to separate the bass from midrange, tweeter action.
BUT.....But someone just said, I will use the X-over in the sub/subs. I never liked doing just that, more connections, more speaker cable, and if you try to save money you most likely have a inexpensive sub which equals crappy electronics and questionable bass...

Damn it just buy a better amp....lol 🇸🇪
I just wanted to add, I don't believe you need a sub with those speakers. there's plenty of bass and it goes fairly low with a reasonable output me thinks. If you play electronica or have a penchant for organ music a sub or preferably two is a must.
I think two is the only way to go, better for output, better for room integration and it sounds way better as it integrates in the system much better....Now the previous words about bass output of your 
speakers it's all dependent again on the amp....

Look at the output of the speaker, if I don't remember wrong there at about 87db at 1 meter at 1w  And they are 4ohm  IE a hard load for most low powered amps.

I need an Espresso or two......🇸🇪
Thanks guys,
My intention of getting the 10" driver was to have enough bass to not need subs. Unfortunately, my wife is not into sound systems and her ears are extremely sensitive to bass, she has an "allergic reaction" to the word "sub-woofer" and the only time I can actually watch movies the way I like is when she is not home :).  I found a thread on audioshark about the Hypex N500 based amps (class D amps) that I am reading. it's a mere 100 pages long so I have my work cutout for me.
Mapman,
Do you have the bel canto black series amps? If you are satisfied with the performance of the bel canto and the ohm 5000s that should be an indicator that the new hypex class Ds are up for the task.
