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

Are the casters a standard alternative to the plinth base?

My impression was that the plinth was used starting with the 100/200/300/5 series in place of the casters used on the larger, older first and second generation OHM Walshs.

Personally I like the versatility the casters provide and I do not hear any noticeable sonic ill effects.

Good question, Mapman. AFAIK, the casters are affixed to the plinth base, so you get both. I asked Jay if the plinths sat flat on the floor, since my basement floor (carpeted) is not completely flat. His response was that they come with casters, so an uneven floor shouldn't be an issue. I guess I'll find out when the speakers arrive.

Question for Ohm Walsh owners: Do the Ohm Walsh speakers require a perfectly level horizontal set-up to sound their best? I know other speaker manufacturers are adamant on this point, but perhaps, because of the Walsh design, horizontal leveling is less critical?

Looking more carefully at the pics of the new line on th OHM site, it appears that there are actually 6 models currently compared to 5 prior:

prior:

micro
100
200
300
5

current:

micro
1000
2000
3000
4000
5000

4000/5000 appear to share the same largest cabinet size similar to 300s and 5s prior.

Not clear to me yet how the new line compares to old line in terms of cabinet size and target room sizes model per model. There does appear to be one extra model and cabinet size overall this time around though.

I am looking for a second set of speakers, the room is extremly large 25 feet long 18 ft high 15 feet wide. The room also has a balcony that divides the space in half. I am looking for speakers that fill most of space (going to put on balcony or cross beams that come off the balcony and open to suggestions) Budget around 500 (somewhat flexible) 30 hertz would nice but might just get a sub. Using a denon receiver (av not the best but adequate for me) I bought some of those ohm frs 9 on ebay and they are good but not what I am looking for (problems with tweeter). Any help would be appreciated.

I've been trying to figure this out myself, Mapman.

It looks to me like the 1000 is a new model, somewhere between the Micro and the old 100...

The 100-S3 (which I have) has a cabinet which is 9 x 9 inches. I'd originally assumed that the 1000 was the replacement model for the 100, but its cabinet is only 7.5 x 7.5 inches.

The cabinet of the 2000 seems closer in size: 9.5 x 9.5.

If so, I'm not replacing my 100's anytime soon... that's a full $1100 more than I paid for the 100's. But I wonder if I can just upgrade the drivers?
