| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Thanks for your thoughts, Mapman. BTW, interesting story behind the German Physiks: The designer of the Dicks Dipole Driver specifically set out to design a Walsh driver without the cost constraints that Ohm works under. IOW, a no-holds-barred Wal... | |
| Do you listen mainly to Audiophile CDs and records? And another thing... I listen to a lot of music on Youtube. What's that, 320 kps at best? I don't care. There's more great music out there than I can afford. And, again, on my system, it doesn't sound too bad. | |
| Do you listen mainly to Audiophile CDs and records? I would never let the quality of a recording dictate whether I would listen to it or not. I have plenty of really badly recorded/produced/mixed recordings that enjoy. I enjoy them in the car, on a secondary system, and on the big rig. Besides t... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? How do you like the Mojo? I have been pondering buying an ifi Black Label DSD DAC, for home use, not portable. This is a a direct competitor to the Chord.I really like the German Physiks. That dealer/distributor is Larry Borden's Distinctive St... | |
| $3000 Speaker Search bassdude2 - Not for nothing, but "most" is not "all". As JGH used to say, if you haven't heard it, you don't have an opinion. | |
| Worked Backwards and Would like to Hear Suggestions on Speakers +2 on the Ohm Walsh suggestion. Depending on the size of your room, these should come in well within your budget. I have been happily running a pair of Ohm Walsh 2000s for about 8 years (although I do run them with subs, because, well, I am a ba... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Map - Did you buy them? I saw a nice pair on ebay recently with starting bid at $900. I bought a somewhat beat-up pair of MW Talls a few years back for $375 - Audiogon seller in Brooklyn, so i picked them up myself. They are my surround speaker... | |
| $3000 Speaker Search I am a little late to the party, but I would recommend the speakers I own, Ohm Walsh 2000 ($2800/pr). They are available in a wide variety of veneers, are not too large, and work well in my space, which, like yours, is a smaller nook open to a lar... | |
| Help me narrow down some speaker choices msommers: The German Physiks, to my ears (YMMV) do just about everything right. They place sound in the room, with a wide, tall and deep soundstage. Yet, the music seems properly scaled, pianos sound like normal-sized pianos, not miniature pian... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? rodm_2001 - Thanks. I actually prefer a gradual roll-off of the high frequencies. The 2000s do in fact fit that bill. In fact, a recent cable upgrade has made the 2000s brighter, alsmost too bright. A borderline situation. I do have a decent ... | |
| Come on people....BASS! I think the OP is absolutely rite! | |
| What 2 channel Amp would you Buy for $6k? If I had $6K to drop on a power amplifer, I would buy a pair of Arion Audio HS-500 hybrids. I have heard these several times, and they are excellent. Lots of power, and they don't sound like Class D amps. Liquid and clean. ArionAudio.com. | |
| Help me narrow down some speaker choices msommers - No, I have been enjoying my much less expensive Ohm Walsh 2000s (each with their own Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofer) since late 2009. But I have heard the GP HRS-130, and the GP are my dream speaker. They take the Walsh omni concept and re... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? rodm - innteresting. Your post made me realize that when I hooked my 2000s up to that Pioneer AVR, I was using the Pioneer’s MCACC, Pioneer’s fairly effective room correction software. I normally do not have the Pioneer in the 2-channel chain, so ... | |
