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.

WG,

I the grand scale of things, your asking price is very favorable. There is no speaker I know of capable of more at anywhere near that price point. There are decent monitors, but these compete with fullranges and the OHMs play with the best IMHO.

The challenge with the OHM Walshes from a sellers perspective I think is that many see older OHM Walshes out there for under $1000 these days and are not aware of the differences in performance between old and new OHM Walshes. The cans and cabinets all tend to look similar, more so than most designs, so I think it is important to make sure prospective buyers know exactly what they are getting, a speaker that in most rooms competes with the best out there, and not a 30 year old less refined design.
Hey the nice GP DDD speakers are back up for sale now for about the cost of a new pair of 5000s.

I wish I lived close enough to the seller to give a listen.

Darn it! 6 months ago I lived close enough to give them a listen.

Would love to compare those to Ohm's...
Yes, I would like to compare as well. I suspect they would sound quite different.
