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

Mapman - Agreed. I know that the number of watts per dollar is not the only, nor the most important, aspect of a power amp. But I am very curious about the D-Sonic amps. These have massive power, and at least one very good review in the audio press. Can't do anything now. Tuition bills up to my eyeballs. BTW, are the ref1000m amps the current BC model?

Bond,

Yep, ref1000m still current model. It has had good longevity and I can vouch for why.

Other BC amps like ref500m use next generation, newer Icepower modules though from what I recall.

Have not heard newer D-Sonic amps but they have potential to be game changers, from what I read, even with tube pre-amps, which was not the case with their earlier Icepower based products.

Well, I've ordered the 300-5000's! Ready to go, should be shipped tomorrow and I'll receive mid next week. Excited. Worried. Heck, I have not listened to anything except my NHT'S in about thirteen years! No audio shows or clubs. No auditions at high end stores. I'm figuring out how to reconfigure my room, as John said it's likely a bit too dead the way I have it set up. Should be fun, right? This thread is incredible!! I'll let you know. Oh, today I learned that I'll likely be furloughed. So. Awesome. No pay raise in four years, and now a pay cut. Excellent. Thank you Sir, may I have another! Sorry guys, had to spout.

Zap,

Sorry to hear that!

Keep us all posted and let us know if we can help with the speaker situation at least. Cheers!

Sorry about that, Ultimatezap. At least you will have something to keep you busy until you get back to work.

BTW, I neglected to mention, about 11 years ago, I sold NHT at a regional audio-video store. I always liked the NHTs, and frankly, they were the best sounding (if not the most expensive) brand we sold. But, I do recall very well those metal dome tweeters. With the mediocre AVRs and amps we had on hand, these tweets were displayed in all of their harsh, bright, ragged glory. If any of that has ever bothered you about your NHTs, you're in for a treat.
