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

For what it's worth, here's my latest update.

Right now, I'm just listening to music more than I'm 'listening' to the Ohm's. I simply enjoy listening more than I have in years, and the speakers seem to stay out of the way. I don't know a better way to put it.

In comparison, the DefTechs (BP2006) that these replaced seemed to always get in the way of enjoying things musically. I was always aware of them, and never entirely happy.

Next phase for me is hooing-up my parasound equipment and hearing what these sound like with 220 watts and high current. After that, a sub for movies.

Glad you're enjoying them so much. You've got the idea; set up properly, the Ohm's just get out of the way of the music. :-)

Hey P - Interested in hearing the results with the Parasound gear. When I switched amps last year, the bass got a lot deeper. In my room (12x25), I pretty much have enough bass - maybe I'll try hooking up my sub to find out, but I think the neighbors will have a problem with it...

Yeah, that's what I'm hoping for. According to John, that's what I can expect.

Which brings to mind something else that is worth metioning again. Buying the Ohm Micro Walsh Talls gave me something more than a great speaker. It also got me something of an advisor as well.

I went with the MWT's due to size, WAF and the fact that I move a lot. John at Ohm supported the decision, but pointed out that the 100-S3's would probably be the better fit for what I want overall. I have no doubt that he's right. But he also took the time to explain what would happen, in each scenario, from placement to toe-in to amplification. He also advised me on the difference between my Harmon Kardon AVR-20 and the Parasound HCA-2205 that I will ultimately be using (Friday even if the room is not finished.

In every case so far,what he said would happen did indeed happen. That gives me reason to assume that future advice will also be accurate.

I'm not saying that one should call him and waste his time with endless questions and opinions. I am saying that he you're truly serious about buying his product, he is an honest broker and an accurate advisor. No one is perfect, but he's darn close in my book.

-P

John is great - I sent him specs of a few different amps, and he gave me advice on how each one would do with my MWT's. It's really fun being able to get direct advice from the designer, I couldn't think of dealing with any other speaker company.
