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.

Peter,

I see this as a potential marketing mistake. At the end of the day, this is a hobbyist purchase. People frequently base their purchase decision on their view of the particular technology as much as the product's performance. If you could hide the fact that your SET amp employed 300B tubes, would you?

I sympathize with (and fully understand) the desire to protect your intellectual property (I'd NEVER download music illegally for this reason), but I suspect that D-Sonic will lose sales over this decision.

Of course, I could be wrong.

As do I and I would suspect Dennis is fully aware of the risk. Who can say if he will lose many sales, although I can say he lost a sale to me.
Have you guys seen the new Ohm website? http://ohmspeaker.com It's a beta site, much better than the current version, plus there is an incentive to find errors. I can't believe it, but the Ohm 5000 talls are priced at $3250, instead of the current $6500. No kidding! Check it out.
Oops! My bad- the new website lists the 5000's at $3250 EACH, the same price currently for a pair. Anyway, the website is much improved find a mistake, email John, and he will take 10% off the price of a new set of speakers- limit 4 per customer.
The new Ohm site is pretty incredible. It's like they just time-jumped from the early 90's to day in one leap.

If nothing else, take a look at the impressive lineup of center channel speakers. Oh,m and surround speakers

Oh, and the sub based on the old F cabinet looks like it might be a beast!

Definitely worth a visit to check it out.
