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.

Mailman199: I have a set of Zu Druids that will be here Friday. That's the first of my in home shootout. The Gallo 3.1 will be next. I'll keep everyone informed if you are interested.

Absolutely, please post your impressions as soon as you have a few sentences worth and then keep updating them. :)
Mail,

I think you're about to try out an apple and an orange - and maybe a banana, to boot. It will be interesting to hear from you on this one.

OK, I spent all day with them today. I find them power hungry but very interesting. I'm going to try and track down a nice Rotel amp as I think that would be a good match for them.

The tonal balance is very nice and Johnny Cash and Diana Krall both sound "right". In my particular room they are fairly responsive to the positioning of the speaker and the imaging can be overwhelmingly wide to very tight depending on how I set them up. The back wall really did just disappear when I first played them. :-)

I'm could sit here and type about them all night but I won't.... yet anyway. I need to spend some more time with them. :-)
Espressogeek,

I find them power hungry but very interesting.

Tell us more about what you mean by power hungry, if you can. Thanks!
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)
