Mapman, Finsup: I got the Ohms because of their reputation for vocals (you see a lot of people over at AVS complaining about dialogue intelligibility in movies) and music (I'm a big fan of Bollywood). And they deliver the goods there! Given what's... | |

| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Finsup: I have a 7.4 HT system with all 100-S3 drivers. I use Yamaha's YPAO (RX-V763 with external amps), and it works fine. I also have a 2.1 system with 2XO's; an older HTR-5990's YPAO (no amps) works OK there as well.Rbf1138: In my 7.4 system I... | |

| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bondmap,I have gone through various 5.1 and 7.1 configurations for the sides and rears, trying combinations of the Super 2's, the 100 S3 omnis, the mini-micro omni's, bipoles, dipoles, and three sets of direct radiators. For my money, there is no ... | |

| Ohm Micro Walsh small vs. tall Jax2 You know, I wondered if you'd recognize me. Holy cow, do you have a posting history! Right now, they are being used as rears until the eleven-channel wide-and-height receivers/processors come down into my price range. I know it's overkill an... | |
