Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Coot, 100 watts/tube=500 watts/ss, if this were the case, an awful lot of people would have given up on solid state a long time ago. This just isn't so and is another hi-fi myth. I don't think I have ever seen quite this amount of exaggeration tho... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I think the new site is definately a big step in the right direction, been a loooong time coming. About the only thing I see is that more pictures of each model would be a good thing, and that may be in the works still. I am sure like most things,... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Bond-great on the 2000's, and boy, I do not envy you with cord/cable changes, those are the kind of "upgrades" that typically would drive me mad! But yes, the Ohm's are very revealing of anything in the stream, but the good thing is, I also find t... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
You could be right Bond, there sure are a lot of them out there though. Thanks for the offer on the vortex box. One of my friends just built one himself and loves it. I haven't been over to check it out yet, but something I have given some thought...

Bond, shame the Squeeze Box are no more, not sure what happened there. Right now I just go lossless with my iTunes via Apple TV or directly to my Naim Uniti. There are so many ways to skin the cat, have also been thinking about a vortex box as wel... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I do the same thing Bond, only am usually streaming Pandora mixes or whatever is on my iTunes radio. Always nice for those moments when you just want to sit back and relax and not fuss with anything. The Ohm's always sounded great. I do have to sa...

See John at Ohm for the Black Friday sale! Got a notice in my e-mail, so if you have been holding out, now is a great time to buy. Happy Holidays folks! Tim 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Okay, got you. I didn't know if this was the case or if the 5000's were new or what. Makes sense then, and you could maybe benefit from a bit more power there possibly. Those pipe organs can sure push a system to it's limits, that is for sure. I h...

Coot, just curious but have you tried your B&K on the 5000's yet? You might see how it goes before spending the money, you might be surprised. Or not......I do like the Bel Canto amps myself though. Enjoy the 5000's! Tim

Map, I will gladly take your F-5's off your hands, not that I will have the room for them soon, but oh well. Yeah, I would love to see these beasts as well. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I had sent John S. at Ohm a note earlier, and inquired about the Ohm F-5015, here is his response. Guess I wasn't too far off on my guess afterall....The F-5015 is the ultimate upgrade Ohm F. The cabinet has a 15" XtremeXcursion, sealed subwoofer ... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Map, it is an F-5000 with an active 15" sub built in.......Actually, I just made that one up, but one never knows. I too saw that and wondered, but the price for me is way beyond my means. Still curious too though. Tim 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
All, take a look at Ohm's website, John is having a Columbus Day sale on all Ohm speakers, limited to 37 pairs, get them at greatly reduced rates while you can! I hope some of you that might have been on the fence can take advantage of this and or... 
Ohm Walsh Microtall or Vandersteen 1C
I agree on the MWT thing, I had a long run where my MWT's were in as my main L/R, and even after having the 3/3000's, I never felt short-changed overall. Sure the bass was not as deep and didn't have quite the slam or dynamics to it, but the littl... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
RBI, for what it is worth, I use a pair of REL T-3 subs with my MWT'S when they are in the system. These can be found fairly cheaply on occasion here on the Gon, also a couple of close out companies have had them listed, but I bet most will be out...
