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

Rebbi,

Where did you end up placing your 100s?

Jaybo is correct. I've had the micro's and moved to the 100's when I had a room change. The signature is the same just more bass and they play a bit louder from what John has told me (I don't really crank my tunes).

Marcus,

I think while the imaging is excellent on the ohm speakers, you will never get the same precision you'll find in a traditional dynamic speaker. Likewise, while you can find great imaging in a dynamic speaker, you'll never find the same openness and wide sweet spot the Ohms give you in a traditional speaker. Every design has trade-offs and as you've said the room is key. Like you also said it would be great to have more than one speaker to listen to! I plan on adding another setup with a traditional speaker but I don't see myself getting rid of the Ohms to do this. Enjoy the RS6's! I've heard good things about them :)

Martykl great updates! I too use dual subs with my 100s and the results are fantastic. I am using separates and added some of ACI's passive filters to take out low bass from the mains. This opened them up even more.

Thanks Rebbi,

That is exactly where I ended up with mine (for the back wall). If anyone has the space, I strongly recommend using some acoustic treatments. I just finished getting the last pieces together and the difference combined with dialing in my placement was the best upgrade yet :)

I ended up going with GIK. Great guys, lots of options, and great prices too.

In my experience, I've driven the Ohms with a wide range of electronics:

An Onkyo HT Receiver (lower end @ about 80 wpc)
100 wpc Monoblocks
250 wpc stereo amp

All have driven the Ohms with no problems. But I don't listen at very loud levels (max is usually around 80-85bd sessions)
