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

He has them powered by one of the new Peachtree 220 ICE amps (220 wpc into 8 ohms, double into 4). I read the review on 6 moons as well and it is apparent he has preferences for one type of speaker but not this type of omni-speaker. I know some people that hate forward sounding speakers that push sound at you instead of letting it emanate from the speakers as most omni's and bipoles do. To each their own I guess but I know what I heard. On the other hand there is a favorable review of these speakers in Secrets of Home Theater/High Fidelity site. It's mostly a moot point anywhere as there aren't many of these out there and they are no longer made. I have no intrinsic interest in them as I prefer my Emerald Physics and am happy with them. Just saying if you ever get chance to check them out and you like the omni-type sound they are definitely worth a listen.

Batch, I had one of the first 2000 series upgrades on a pair of older OW2 cabinets. I felt like the break in took most all of the trial time, and then even a bit after that it seemed they smoothed out over the course of several weeks thereafter. John will work with you though as long as you keep him in the loop from the get-go. If you have any issues or doubts about things, even early on, don't hesitate to bounce things off of him. Of course a lot of this will depend on how much play time you actually give them over the course of the trial period, the more the better. Enjoy! Tim

Thanks for the responses. I've already called John w/ questions & he's been very helpful. I've got them in a spare room hooked up to a radio, so I can run them 10 hours or so per day. Unfortunately, even though its a spare room, I can't really crank them up too much.

"Cranking" was a big part of the break-in process for me with my 5S3s. Any break in possible is a good thing though I would say.

How would I know when I've turned these things up too loud? This is just theoretical, but I want to know I'm not gonna damage anything. Running them with a Peachtree Nova, but I don't know what the dial levels mean as far as wattage output.
