I'm located in Louisiana and Hi-Fi shops are few and far between. I started researching speakers and a picky audio friend said that I should audition OHM speakers as he inherited a pair from his brother and he was sure that I would be more than happy with them. After reading everything I could find on OHM, I took the plunge and ordered a pair of the micro-talls.
The speakers took about 60 hours to break in, and the end result was so impressive that I ended up sending them back and upgrading to a pair of OHM 1000's. It cost me $95.00 to ship the micros back but I didn't care. I needed something that could handle a bit more power.
My advice to you is to research all the companies that will allow you a home trial. Ohm offers a 120 day trial period. Also, do your homework and read up on as many speakers as you can to see what the owners say, positive and negative about them. That helped me make my decision. Good Luck
