If you can't listen to them locally. Ohm offers of 120 days to audition should give you enough time to to decide, if they are for you? I have owned the micro Walsh talls for years in a HT set up and was very satisfied. I just inherited a pair of 4xo from the 90s and had them upgraded to the 3000 drivers. WOW is all I can say about these speakers. Big jump from the micro's. John S at Ohm will not sell you more speaker than your room can handle. Good listening!
