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.

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.
Haven't heard NHT in a while but from my recollection, they have a different tonality than OHM, more like the French Triangle speakers that I also listen to and enjoy regularly on my "other" system.
