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

I have them setup per the "manual" with the tweeters oriented to the listener and the boxes more than 1/2 in front of the rack to the side of each speaker. I havent tried orienting them out. That could be interesting. The placement ahead of the rack definitely helped. Unfortunately, it is not the perfect room, if any is, and its not a dedicated audio room. However, the C2s I had setup before and the Spendor S3/5s setup behind the Walshs both have more highs. John did not and I understand that box speakers sound different.

I dont think walls are the issue here. They are 20 inches from the front wall and 4-5 feet from the side wall. The room is pretty bright as there are windows to the side and behind me nearly floor to ceiling. I also get more highs when I use the eq in line so I think its the nature of the drivers themselves. And, again my ears may be too attuned to the box sound and artificial highs that are not natural to music. I think that Rebbi originally wrote of getting a different set of tweeters installed in his MWTs, from the 100S3 units. I should have that already so it may simply be that the speakers are softer and my ears overly sensitive.

I know the C2s well. They are inherently brighter in tone than Walshes and most every other OHM speaker I have heard. People either like them for that or not.

Update: Ohm factory says my Walsh 2000s should ship on Monday, the 27th. Since I am one state over, I should have them the next day. Shipping on the 27th means that Jay, my salesman at Ohm, was spot-on when he told me that the speakers would ship in 3 to 4 weeks. Customer service is important to me, and meeting an expected delivery window speaks well of both Jay and Ohm.

More updates to follow. And, yes, I am cautiously excited!

Bondmanp,

That is so cool! Keep us posted!
