Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I should have 4 new acoustic panels in next week. I just ordered a pair of GIK Acoustics Monster Bass Traps for the rear wall with the range limiter option and also ordered a pair of Polyfusors for the side wall. Looking forward to hearing and mea... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? bondmanp: Thanks for reading over the long review. On the issue of break-in per one of John's article at Ohm it seems like break-in occurs fairly rapidly but what he seems to imply is that a lot of it is breaking your ears and brain into a differe... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Polarin you nailed it right on the head. Not many speakers are able to pull this off. I noticed after I got my Ohms that when listening to my Magnepans I was being selective about my music selection and played tracks that I knew sounded good on th... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Thank you all for the kind words.Mapman, the 10hz was a shocker for me too however it is definitely confirmed with the Ohms has the Magnepans never measured like that with Dirac and I have measured the room with the Ohms in various positions aroun... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Well it has been a few weeks with my Ohm Walsh 2000's and I think it is time for a review. Say that with the following qualifiers: A: The speakers probably have about 30 hours in on them at moderate to loud volume so the break in is there to judge... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman,As I said in an above post I have boosted the EQ curve to be tilted towards the bass. I tend to like this sound as it sounds a bit more reinforced on the low end.Dirac, by default does not use a flat curve. it is +2 db in bass and -2 db at ... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Lets try this again with the linking:http://imgur.com/wQzU3N8 Mapman to answer your questions. I used the recommended USB microphone: UMIK-1 and bought a USB cable extender so it could reach around my room. I used the stereo version of the softwar... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Just a quick observation about the Ohms that I realized during a prolonged listening session. The Magnepans really made me listen to certain types of music. Those tracks where ones that I knew sounded good and there were many tracks that sounded t... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman,You pretty much just described how Dirac like any other room correction software works.In my specific instance I use it on my Mac Mini that I have setup with Audirvana playback software using the Dirac Plugin and also use the Dirac software... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Please see the link for a screenshot of my Dirac response curve before and after. The green is after and the blue is before. | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bondmap, Assuming my listening session tonight doesn't drive me to want to reposition the speakers I will remeasure everything for the position they are currently in and take screenshots to post.Please note though that I do not use a +3 db bass to... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman, I used to be a big believer in listening with my ears only, however there are things that Dirac does that no golden ear can including time alignment, etc. Typically I tend to place the speakers by ear first so that I get the soundstagin... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Definitely with the Ohms I am hearing half way down the cabinet midrange from the woofer part of the Walsh driver. Just seems like it can't be any good to have resonance from the cabinet as typically most manufacturers go for inert cabinets and ma... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I am using the Subdudes. However the subdues won't address the issue I am raising which is the side of the cabinets are definitely resonating. You can knock on the cabinet and it is clearly not inert. | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Been swamped this past week and really haven't had a chance to break the Ohms in anymore. Currently in an extended listening session with them and wondering about cabinet resonance. As I move the speakers around to get the best imaging as am notic... |
