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.

I've got a pair of Salk Songtower RT's (QWT two-way floorstanders) currently that I am quite happy with. But I have to admit... this thread has me really interested in the current Ohm speaker lineup! I may buy a pair of 100's to see how they differ from my current more traditional dynamic driver speakers. It seems like the Ohm presentation would be quite different, but I wonder if I would like it better than what I have. I guess there's only one way to truly find out...

Rockinrobin: Along with the Ohm 100's, the Songtower is a speaker that is on my list for consideration of a speaker upgrade. If you end up auditioning the Ohms against your Salks, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Agreed.

RR,

Just to be clear, the OHMs utilize dynamic drivers as well.

It's the Walsh driver design and concept that make them both unique and different.

Here is a blurb with some background on the Walsh driver concept beyond what you might find on the OHM site:

I have a pair Walsh 5 S3's that will soon be on the way. Pairing them with a Blue Circle BmPH. I'm hoping this will get me off the merry-go-round.
