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.

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!

"The horns and the kick drum particularly come across on the Ohms"

I would agree.

Since going to the ARC tube pre-amp in my system in particular, mid-range, including horns and vocals, and overall dynamics on percussive instruments have taken as major step forward with the OHMs.

I notice it on the Dynaudios as well, but to a lesser extent.

You guys may also want to check out Maceo Parker's "Roots and Grooves", a (mostly) live (sort of) tribute to Ray Charles. The 17+ minute work-out "Pass The Peas" is an ear opener on the Ohm 100s.
