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

Mapman,

Just ordered it. Thanks! :-)

Wowie Kazowie....

I had an amazing experience with the Ohm's this morning. Had a few minutes to listen to some music and threw Steely Dan's "Gaucho" (a favorite) into the CD player. I remember when this album first came out on vinyl in 1980 and I've listened to it countless times since then.

Trite as this sounds, it was a revelation on the Ohm's... I heard detail and "air" and smoothness that I've never experienced before. Vocals floated in the air and Donald Fagen sounded amazing. It's hard to describe but it was just thrilling.

Rebbe,

Its funny that I listened to a good mastering of "Gaucho" on CD on a pair of Quad electrostats at a local dealer when I was auditioning speakers prior to getting the newer Ohms and it was one of those 10/10 golden listening experiences where I said "this sounds perfect...it can't get any better than this".

Unfortunately, I only have an old home made cassette recording of Gaucho at home, so I have not been able to try to reproduce the same results there.

The $11,000 Quads were my reference listening experience though at the time when I decided to go with the newer Ohms for a chance to match the experience at less than half the cost.

Rebbi - You've been pulling out lots of great recordings - it is a great feeling when you get the most out of them.
Since these conversations on the Ohms began, I've been listening to my speakers with a more critical ear again, also pulling out older recordings. I must say that these speakers have saved me from having to spend money every year in search for something better. I usually grow tired of something after a very short time, but after 4 years, these MT's keep delivering the goods.

Any updates? I am very interested in the Ohm's, and have my eyes set on the 100-S3's. I've noticed that some people rave about them, and then ultimately choose something else.
