Speakers for 8.5 x 11 room?
I would reccomend the Ohm Micro Talls. these would truly shine in a room that size. Check out the thread on the micros and read the comments 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I recenyly upgraded to the new Walsh 1000's,and it cost me $96.00 to ship the micro walshes back to Ohm. Just thought I'd give you an idea of cost if you choose to ship speakers back to them. I'm still in the process of breaking in my 1000's, and ...

I find the phrase "Ohm Gushing" to be quite hilarious. Anyone who has not heard these speakers, or any omni speaker, just don't know what they're missing. We're gushing because we're hearing something unique that most other speakers don't do. I'm ...

Ron, I owned a pair of micro talls for 5 months and never thought they lacked bass. Part of the problem is that most of your music is on vinyl. They just couldn't put that much bass on lp's, or the needle would be jumping right out of the groove, ...

Rebbi, I forgot to mention that when I talked to John, I told him that he seems to have achieved sonic holography with his speakers. He then proceeded to tell me that when Bob Carver presented his Sonic Holography to the audio world, he did it wit...

Just recently, I noticed a buzz comming from one of my micro talls at low listening levels, which seemed to disapear when I turned the volume up. I contacted John and he recomended checking to make sure the speaker wire in the cannister wasn't tou...

You can go to the factory and audition them, which is an advantage very few of us have had. That is cool!! I think once you hear them, you will have no doubt in your mind that they're special. Then once you get them home, you can experience them i...

Ron325, Sorry if we scared you with the 1/2 inch toe out and things like that. From what I've read, the Ohms are pretty forgiving as far as placement, but if you take the time to fine tune them to your room, you will be rewarded beyond expectation...

Bondmanp I've got all the Aimee Mann albums, so I'll be checking them out soon. The copy of Lost in Space that I have is a double disc that has a mostly live second disc. Is this the one you're talking about??? I also have all the Til Tuesday albu...

Frazeur1, thanks for the suggestions. I don't have any yellowjackets yet, but I do have alison Krauss and Lyle Lovett, and will check them out. If you're into Beck, check out the Midnight Vultures and Odelay discs. Both of these are a fun listen t... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Frazeur1, thanks for your response. I really can't praise these speakers enough. Recently, I put on an album by Bill Nelson called Atom Shop. I've listened to this album on my bose tri-port headphones, on friends systems, and in my car. I thought ... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
My micro Talls stunned me last night. I've been reading all the ohm threads, and mapman said if the imaging seems unbalanced, to try toeing the speakers out to get more exposure to the super tweeter on the weaker speaker. When I toed out the left ... 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
Rbaker, welcome to the sound of ohm speakers. When I read your thread, I felt I had to respond. I too, just discovered the unique character of Ohm speakers. I feel they give you a sensation of being "bathed in sound". I worked for Acoustic Researc... 
how big a speaker can you put in an 11 x 11 room?
John at Ohm no longer recommends the Micro Shorts to his customers. When I talked to him about buying mine, he purposely steered me away from the shorts, and recommended the Talls. Personally, I think that the Shorts would be too close to the floo...
