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.

"but all I can think about is how good the 2000s sounded with those 500 watters."

Bond, I fear you have crossed into the dark side and there is no turning back... :^)
You are spot-on, Mapman. I have indeed crossed over, and my conscience will not rest until I can feed my Ohms properly.
Because I use an Onkyo pre-pro (Audyssey) with my Ohm 100/twin Rythmik subwoofer system, I recently got hold of an old Onkyo 508 amp, cheap. It's a very cool looking beast (large illuminated meters) and provides 250ish wpc to the Ohms. (I had the amps re-capped, due to their age - it was still cheap after the surgery.) They sound glorious.

I'll continue to rotate amps thru the system because it's fun, but the Onkyo/Onkyo como has proven surprisingly satisfying.

Nice to hear, Marty. Those Onkyo power amps are pretty sexy looking. What are some of the other amps you use?
Not sure the vintage of that Onkyo specifically but similar vintage Onkyo amps I recall from late 70's Tech Hifi days were some of the better ones out there in the day and the looks speak for themselves. Have never heard them on modern OHMs, but how could it not sound really good, especially with separate powered subs to help carry the load?
