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.

Sorry all. Someone stole my phone number (I'm serious), and I have no internet at home until we get it resolved.

All I had time to do this long weekend is watch a movie. they're not kidding on the Ohm site when they state that a sub is needed for movies. Even my wife commented on it (she's getting spoiled, and notices when something doesn't sound right)

Musically, they exceed all expectations. Surprisingly, in the bass. If bass is within their range, it is satisfying and substantive. Below their cutoff frequency, and bass is non-existent.
For what it's worth, here's my latest update.

Right now, I'm just listening to music more than I'm 'listening' to the Ohm's. I simply enjoy listening more than I have in years, and the speakers seem to stay out of the way. I don't know a better way to put it.

In comparison, the DefTechs (BP2006) that these replaced seemed to always get in the way of enjoying things musically. I was always aware of them, and never entirely happy.

Next phase for me is hooing-up my parasound equipment and hearing what these sound like with 220 watts and high current. After that, a sub for movies.

Glad you're enjoying them so much. You've got the idea; set up properly, the Ohm's just get out of the way of the music. :-)
Hey P - Interested in hearing the results with the Parasound gear. When I switched amps last year, the bass got a lot deeper. In my room (12x25), I pretty much have enough bass - maybe I'll try hooking up my sub to find out, but I think the neighbors will have a problem with it...
