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.

Mapman,

Nice suggestion, thanks, I'll try it.

I was a trumpet player in my youth (alas!) and accumulated lots of big band jazz LP's, including “miles” of Maynard Ferguson in his heyday. I bet some of that stuff would sound sweet on the 100's. I also have some Buddy Rich, and an obscure but fun LP of the Woody Herman Band playing songs by Steely Dan (I'm not kidding)!

I'll report back....

" the Woody Herman Band playing songs by Steely Dan (I'm not kidding)"

That sounds awesome!

I'll have to look for that one!

Yeah, it's an old LP called “Chick, Donald, Walter and Woodrow.” A collection of Steely Dan and Chick Corea tunes done by the Woody Herman Big Band. :-)

Check out Ellingotn's live at Newport double CD. Amazing!!
The horns and the kick drum particularly come across on the Ohms...

Zkzpb8,

Is this the remaster of the 1958 concert... the one made from two blended master tapes? I'm trying to locate the right one on Amazon. Thanks!
