Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I have measured in room response with my Ohms using DIRAC and a calibrated mic and I am getting a gentle roll off about say 10 to 15k. Something was mentioned earlier about the use of an iPad mic and I am wondering if this is an issue with the mic...

Mapman,I have the newer cabinet in my Ohms. From what I canĀ tell the older cabinets seem to be far better constructed than the new ones. When I replacedĀ a can that was damaged during shipping I posted some photos of the interior of the newer cabin... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
My Ohms were dialed in pretty well in my room. I continued to fiddle with placement, but consistently returned to the same position time and time again.Honestly if I were to fault the Ohms it would be a tendency to have instruments sound like they...

Here is a link to the coverage Stereophile gave the Ohms.http://www.stereophile.com/content/nyas-2016-day-one-jim-austin#32si0iLbhryvqxkY.97I wasn't there to have a listen, but I have to say that I have never heard the "abundance of ambience" that...

I have taken my Ohms apart and posted images earlier in this thread. The cabinet seems fine just not really well built IMO. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Yeah you have mentioned this before, but I have noticed sound emanating from the side wall of the tower. It wasn't exactly quiet either and must have an impact on the sound. Do remember that I am using the smaller and from what I can tell less wel... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Glad to hear others discussing the cabinet vibration issues. I really wonder if a modification could be done to the Ohms to make them vibrate less and what that would sound like. My first though was maybe some damplifier on the inside of the cabin...

Schubert, that point that I was making with that statement is that the Ohm's make all recordings sound good. As I have sound now that I have the Ohm's I am realizing how much my listening sessions were pulled in the direction of tracks that sounde...

I am also curious as to what post of mine you are referencing? 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Schubert, call it what you will but there are certain music types that you hear at every stereo shop demo or magazine review. This is what I would call audiophile music. If I hear one more Patricia Barber or Diana Krall demo I don't know what I wi...

Yeah at some point I will get the room in shape enough to feel comfortable sending out images of it on the web. Right now it needs to be repainted and it is got stuff everywhere since I just installed all these new panels.However one thought I did... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Well the panels came in yesterday and I got the polyfusors setup in the side walls. Definitely an improved blackness in the room and the speakers blend more seamlessly into the room and soundstage. Imaging is also greatly improved. As solid as the...

For all here.I would really recommend taking up GIK Acoustics' offer for free room consultation. I doubt many of us here (myself included) are acoustical engineers and if you contact GIK they will let you work with one on a custom room solution. I... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Having an extended listening session with the Ohms this evening and I find myself again amazed how musical these speakers. Recordings I haven't listened to in years due to their poor sound on the Magnepans sound great in the Ohms. Certainly some a... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
bondmanp - The polyfusors ran $270 + shipping for the pair. Down the road I am going to pick up 8 of the gridfusors to place near the ceiling and according to GIK that should pretty much do it for my room needs minus me doing some crazy stuff that...
