| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman,Yes, I have to say that Ohm is a very special company. And that remains true whether or not I choose, in the end, to keep their speakers.I opened the box, and found, on top (the speaker elements are double boxed) a very long, Phillips head ... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Zkzpb8,Yeah, it's been an interesting process. I played some Steely Dan this morning before going off to work ("Two Against Nature") and it sounded astounding... you'd have sworn you were listening to some sort of surround system, not a two-channe... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Tvad,Good points. No, I've never had the chance... I need a block of an hour or two to just try one of those methods that you posted earlier, but I haven't had that kind of time. You do make a good point, though. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman,Yes, the sense that you can point to the location of the singers centered between the speakers, as opposed to things being "vague" is much better. The presentation is still different than the Arros (of course) but now that I seem to have op... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Think I may have nailed it....I tried moving the MWT's even farther apart, further than I'd ever have thought of placing them... several more inches from each other. The imaging has really come into focus and the tonal balance is considerably brig... | |
| Totem Owners.... Just a quick note to say that I am currently in the middle of making the decision between whether to hang on to my pair of Ohm Micro-Walsh Talls or my pair of Totem Arros. It's a tough call, and I haven't yet made up my mind. But I have to say tha... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Marcus,Thanks very much for your post. I think you've done a good job of articulating the issues here. I got to listen to the Ohm's a little more yesterday and I must say that the tonal character and image focus change quite dramatically when you ... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman,If they're aimed at their normal 45 degree angle into the center of the room, are the tweeter "paths" supposed to intersect in FRONT of your listening position, or right AT your listening position? I tried separating the speakers further fr... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Well, now, the plot thickens once again...A couple of days ago, I had all but decided to return the Micro Walsh Talls and keep the Totems. I just found myself drawn to a greater sense of "detail" and "transparency" and "airiness" in the Totems, as... | |
| Secret messages on LP's? Jsd52756,Thanks very much for the other thread reference. I have to believe that on a bulletin board frequented by so many obsessive LP freaks (no insult intended... I count myself among them) somebody else must have started a thread on this same ... | |
| Secret messages on LP's? Kjweisner,Thanks for the insight. I know I've seen a lot of these little "notes" on my albums... I'll take a look for more and post them. | |
| Secret messages on LP's? Tgrisham,I'm not talking about things that you HEAR on the album, but rather, things that somebody working at the mastering plant actually "penciled" into the smooth area near the lead out groove. It's writing that you can see on the physical surf... | |
| Best budget phono preamp for Unison Unico? Sure, I'm happy to oblige, and thanks for the reminder!First of all, let me say that there is a particular kind of satisfaction in building something like this yourself. I have to add that I, myself, had not even held a soldering iron since I was ... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Also, here's an interesting thread that specifically compares the MWT's to the Totem Arro and Hawk. Interesting reading:http://forum.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/1/146114.html | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman, thanks for the support.Tvad, thanks a lot for reproducing that article here... lots of valuable info. |
