Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?

the suspense is killing me

Unboxed the smashed carton this morning and the speaker inside looks fine. I will write back when I've had the chance to actually hook them up and listen to them... should be around the weekend.

" The suspense is killing me"

Me too!

When my big, heavy, Ohm 5's shipped from Ohm, the cabinet boxes were reinforced with solid particle board for protection.

I'm in the next day delivery zone for UPS in NY, so they only had to survive in their system for less than a day and arrived unscathed.

Mine arrived only in bubble wrap...

Got to listen to them for about 20 minutes today before having to get into work. Sweet spot is huge, indeed. I'm sure they're not placed optimally, yet. Not enough time for tweaking. I must say that it's a pleasure having those nice flat plinths and not having to mess with getting floor spikes leveled!

Presentation is very different than the Totems...

Played a few cuts from Steely Dan's "2 Against Nature." They "filled the room," that's the best description I can give in shorthand. I need to listen more.

Bass is strong and copious and well defined. Not yet sure what distance from back wall is optimum in this regard...

Played a few minutes of the "Princess Monononoke" soundtrack. The opening drum crashes were HUGE. The orchestra sounded like an orchestra... not like "a stereo reproducing an orchestra." I think these things may smoke the Totems for orchestral music. :-)

I need more time with these things...

More to come...

By the way, for you guys who already have the MWT's, what's a good starting point for messing with positioning? Separation of speakers equal to distance to listening position, or what? And how far off the back wall? And did yours come with any kind of instruction sheet? Mine didn't.
