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


Hi,

I'd love to hear the impressions of people who've actually spent some time with these speakers to share their sense of their plusses and minuses. Mapman here on Audiogon is a big fan, and has shared lots on them, but I'm wondering who else might be familiar with them.

Jrhodus, I just ordered a new pair of 3000 Talls, and the Sapele veneer is high on my list (still awaiting a few veneer samples to arrive in the mail)... Would you be willing to post a photo of your 3000s? This would be of great help - Thanks - Gary

Jrhodus emailed me photos of his new 3000's today - Very nice looking in the Sapele veneer - Thanks, James!
If you review some of my older posts, the answer is, quite well. I have a combo 2-channel/HT rig, with Walsh 2000s and a Walsh Center up front, MicroWalsh Talls for the surrounds and a pair of Paradigm Atoms for the rear surrounds (some day I'll have MicroWalsh Walls instead). Add to that a dedicated subwoofer for the LFE and center/surround bass, and a pair of subs to augment the 2000s (which as a set run full range), and my HT is awesome. Last night I watched a BD of Oz the Great and Powerful. It sounded great and powerful, indeed!
Just figured id throw my two cents in here as i have not posted in a while. Im using MWT talls up front with a walsh center that JS rigged up in a 5.1 system that i use for daily tv watching. Powered by a bryston monster amp, i do love the house sound. Very warm sounding and never strident, but with plenty of detail and of course the imaging/soundstaging wonders.....

Seems that the bryston + ohm is a very good combo that i stumbled on to. I have had dozens of speakers and amps and i continue to be impressed with the ohm sound. In fact i may have to dig out my decades old D2's out of the basement and refoam them just to see what they sound like. I recall dislking them when i used them in the 80s...
