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

Deadlyvj,

It's not a thick metallic grille, but more of a thin wire mesh material with what looks like some sort of foam liner. And it's supposed to be acoustically transparent.

I actually removed the grill/can on one of my Ohm speakers to find out if it was interfering with it's sound and could not detect any difference.

"Acoustically transparent"
Is there a reason why there is a cover over the drivers?

I assume that the "cage" is there to physically protect the driver unit. I swapped out the standard drivers today with the modified ones sent to me by John at Ohm and it was, maybe, a five-minute-per-speaker process: remove four bolts, lift off the driver unit, unsnap a plastic connector, and attach the new driver. It's all self-contained.

"Is there a reason why there is a cover over the drivers?"

1) protection
2) aesthetics (what's inside sounds great but ain't pretty)
