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

Quiet on my front of late.

I've done some enhancements to capacity and availability of my music server.

I'm still eyeballing high power amps that I might try at some point. Most likely will be a newer Class D if/when I jump. My current Musical Fidelity amp might go into my second system if I do.

Mapman, you might want to check out a couple of the ARC D300 power amps available on here, they are fairly high current, good damping factor and good sounding units. Would probably compliment your ARC pre that you have. While maybe not a whole ton of watts, the current delivery is good with these. I have a D130 and it has been a wonderful amplifier, I am sure these would drive your Ohms very well. Can't say it would be better or worse than your MF amp though. Enjoy! Tim

frazier1,

The ARC SS amps are on my list of larger amps for consideration, as are larger MFs and various others.

I like the small size and power consumption aspects of the Class Ds to fit into my system without much other impact.

I'm very happy with the A3CR so that makes it hard for me to take a plunge with something else, though I am very curious.

If you are happy with the MF anyway, why rock the boat? It is fun to play though. My D130 physically looks fairly small, but packs a pretty good punch. I am always amazed at how good it does sound.

I haven't listened to many class D amps myself, and while it would be nice to not have the added heat/cooler running, not to mention the space, I don't think I would change for that, it would have to sound a good deal better! One of these days I might take a closer listen. Tim

Tim,

The MF is a good compromise between size and musical authority and I am not one to rock the boat. I've come close to pulling the trigger on a ARC d400 mkII and a MF A308CR, but have resisted so far.

My second system is the one that is underpowered a bit perhaps at present, but it too is hard to fault at the volumes I typically use it at. The MF would probably go into that system were I to acquire a beefier amp still.
