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.

The difference, at least historically, between D-Sonic and Wyred is D-Sonic merely puts existing third party amp modules in boxes with connectors to make a finished product. No special circuitry. Wyred and some others like Bel Canto add circuitry to stock power amp modules to tweak/improve performance as needed. That's a big difference!
Bondmanp..

So the imaging was perfect on you're 2000's, before the Sound anchors?
And did I read 6' ceilings??? I wouldn't even be able to stand up straight in a room with that limited of headroom.
Everything is better after adding the mass to the speaker, dynamics, imaging
image height and it looks way more like a modern designed speaker.

Wtf..Thank you for the good word :-)

Early on Dennis DID offer, as an option, a buffer stage to increase the input impedance of his amps but later discontinue it as he found it make no difference sonically even when using tube preamps.
Tobe,

I suppose Dennis has his reasons and motivations for doing things the way he does.

I'm not judging it, just pointing out some differences between vendor's approaches and value propositions. M-Sonic is certainly one of the vendors that sets the bar in regards to low cost.

Take a look at Audio Research's Class D amps over the years. There is a company known for tube technology that has adapted Class D as well. I tend to trust what they do when designing CLass D amps to run best with tube gear. Whatever the real end benefits when listening are, I think they tend to do things pretty right, but they will never be the lowest cost option.
