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

Got to listen to them for about 20 minutes today before having to get into work. Sweet spot is huge, indeed. I'm sure they're not placed optimally, yet. Not enough time for tweaking. I must say that it's a pleasure having those nice flat plinths and not having to mess with getting floor spikes leveled!

Presentation is very different than the Totems...

Played a few cuts from Steely Dan's "2 Against Nature." They "filled the room," that's the best description I can give in shorthand. I need to listen more.

Bass is strong and copious and well defined. Not yet sure what distance from back wall is optimum in this regard...

Played a few minutes of the "Princess Monononoke" soundtrack. The opening drum crashes were HUGE. The orchestra sounded like an orchestra... not like "a stereo reproducing an orchestra." I think these things may smoke the Totems for orchestral music. :-)

I need more time with these things...

More to come...

By the way, for you guys who already have the MWT's, what's a good starting point for messing with positioning? Separation of speakers equal to distance to listening position, or what? And how far off the back wall? And did yours come with any kind of instruction sheet? Mine didn't.

generally...a couple feet(approx) out from the back, and three feet in on the sides...can vary to acheive proper bass.

What Jaybo said is a good start.

I think Ohm recommends separation equal distance from listening position in order to direct the tweets towards the prime listening position.

If the speaks are too far apart, you can get a hole in the sound stage in the middle, so just listen for that and move them a bit closer together if needed to get focused imaging near the center of the soundstage.

I hope you all enjoy your new Ohms. I have enjoyed both the micros and the 100s. Give yourself some time to get used to the sound and I'm sure you will be very pleased!

Jaybo,thanks for that.

Mapman, I appreciate the advice.

I am nearing the end of a very, very busy time at work and look forward to getting to spend lots of time with the Ohm's during an upcoming stay-at-home vacation! I'll report back as I have impressions to share.
