| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I'm enjoying my Ohm 1000s as I type this -- Murray Perahia is playing Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 1 and the sound is expansive. Ohm's do a wonderful job of capturing the scale of an orchestra in a concert hall.My room is roughly 13 X 14 and the ... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I thought about starting a new thread, but it just seemed right to continue the discussion here. I'm digging through my collection (almost 60,000 tracks) and throwing as much variety as I can at the speakers. You're right, it is fun stuff to check... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I've now spent about 12 hours listening to my new Ohm 1000s and experimenting with their placement in my room. This is not a dedicated listening room so there are limitations as to what can go where. Right out of the box, the 3-D imaging was amazi... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? OK, the Ohm 1000s arrived Wednesday and so far I've got about 4 hours of listening from them. The 3-D image is wonderful out of the box, but still have some experimenting to do with respect to positioning. Plus, they need some break-in time. Way p... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Thanks @bondmanp. I'm probably still 3 weeks or so away from getting them, but plan on giving them every opportunity to become a permanent addition to my system. As noted before, I had a trial run with the 200s back in 2003 or so and they fell jus... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Just thought I'd start up this thread again to state that I have a set of 1000s coming in a few weeks. I had a pair of the original Ohm Fs back in the 1970s and loved them - they threw an absolutely magical 3D image. I have always regretted selli... | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) >> ... having a time and phase aligned speaker is the best way to go. - - - -Just a point of clarification. The Ohms, by inherent nature, are time and phased aligned since all frequencies up to 8K are reproduced by a single driver. The r... | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) Keep in mind that Ohm, as a direct sales company, gives you 120 days to audition their speakers in your own home. You're only out shipping costs if you decide to send them back. I like the voicing of Vandy's -- very natural IMO -- but they are sti... | |
| Bel canto problems Besides temp issues, there are two other things to check. One is the speaker wiring and speaker load. A bad connection, short, or an internal fault in the speakers could be causing the amps to shut down.The other issue is high frequency oscillatio... | |
| Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made? This discussion is like a progressive rock fan trying to get a blues fanatic to agree that his favorite band is the better than any other musical group out there. (You can substitute any other group/musician/genre you wish to create a meaningful e... | |
| Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates Just a thought -- for that kind of money, why not take a trip to Minneapolis and visit the factory to hear them there? | |
| Golden ear triton 1 vs tekton double impact speakers Wow. This reads like the script from a high school argument from the late 1960s about whether Ford V-8s are better than Chevy's. Every well regarded speaker that's ever been made has its fans and its detractors. Name a speaker, any speaker, and it... | |
| How Do Ohm Walsh Tall 3000, 3010, 4000, 4012 Speakers Compare To Current Design Speakers? I suspect the best answer to your question is for you to take up Ohm on their in-home 120 day trial. That's plenty of time for them to break in and for you to experiment with positioning and listen to your heart's content. If they don't float your... | |
| Repairing Ohm F's Ohm will sell you a set of their current drivers for the F cabinets, but they have not actually repaired the classic F driver for many years. (Apparently the one fellow who did that retired.) I used to have a set of Fs back in the 1970s and really... | |
| Spendor, Harbeth...why so hot ? Just curious if anyone else noticed the big time gap between the original thread and the 9/6/17 post by wjt3 that looks like a direct response to a comment made 16 1/2 years ago?That may be a record! |
