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

My larger room is L shaped, approximately 20' base and 30' length.

The F5s in that room have a three way adjustment for room size (small, medium, large) to fit them to various room sizes that other non adjustable models are designed to go into (plus 3 other 3-way tone level adjustments). I find the medium room size setting works best in this room. Set to "large", the bass becomes just a tad overpowering and tends to mask details in the lower midrange a bit.

Thanks. In looking at your system pics, Mapman, where is your normal listening position?

Crunch Time!

One month remains of my 4 month trial. In all honesty, I like most of what the 2000s do, and want to keep them. One by one, all of my issues with these speakers have been resolved, except one: The problems with piano reproduction just below the middle midrange. I cannot determine if this is source-dependent or not. On several piano-solo recordings, the emphasis and distortion in this frequency range is serious enough to be a deal breaker. However, if I can determine that this is due to some factor other than the Walsh 2000s themselves, I will probably keep them.

Can anyone suggest some solo piano recordings that sound smooth, clean and neutral on their Ohm Walsh speakers? I will get them and try them out pronto. TIA.

Michael - If I decide to keep the 2000s, I will first be ordering some spiked bases for them. Then, as finances allow, I will order the Ohm Walsh center channel speaker, and then look for some used Ohm Walsh floorstanders for surrounds. I will, of course, keep everyone posted here of my progress.

Bondman,

No experience with the newer 1000 series drivers or their tonality. I would certainly not expect any audible distortion though. What does John Strohbeen say about it?

Fin,

Look at my system pic titles "thebigohms". I usually listen from the blue swivel chair, anywhere from about where it is in the pic or further back, usually at least 8' or more in front of the speaks or for casual listening sometimes from the couch along the left hand wall.
