| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I have BVSC. I'll have to give it a fresh spin. Replacing the old Carver pre-amp with the new Audio Research Sp-16 has really taken many CDs I've listened to recently to a higher and most musical level more in line with some of the very high end s... | |
| What is the best full range Speaker ? Your room is not that big so you should find many practical high end choices that you might afford depending on your taste and preference. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? "Besides the room-filling sound, IMO, the crossover-less midrange really makes a difference for a more natural (piano) sound..."I briefly suggested Walsh driver speaks for piano on another recent thread on the topic, but didn't go too deep into wh... | |
| RCA connectors for whole house audio system? Whatever works best or easiest for you should work fine.R.S. may also have wires with RCAs already on one end if you want to look to save having to solder connectors.To splice the wires, I remove 1/2-3/4 inch of insulation and wrap/twist the two e... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Your welcome.I'm just glad it worked out for you which ever way you went. | |
| RCA connectors for whole house audio system? You won't find many if any high end amps with RCA connectors for speakers. Radio Shack used to sell bare wires with male RCA's on one end. With these, if still available, you could run the bare wire out from an amp's speaker terminals and connect ... | |
| Best Blu Ray video and for 2 channel transport? Excellent question.I'm looking forward to the answers. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? "But if, like me, you find yourself starting to get hooked on the Ohm "room filling" sound, it's hard to accept something "less,"You nailed it. Most Ohm owners including myself would agree I think.If I had to chose 1 pair of speakers, I'd have to ... | |
| Ohm & Tubes -Part 1 Very interesting stuff.Marty, thanks for taking the time and effort to sort through the Ohms with tube power realm. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Barry,I was interested in and auditioned Gallo Ref 3's for my larger listening room after acquiring the Ohm 100's and prior to acquiring the larger Ohm 5's.I auditioned the Ref 3's in comparison to the top of the line $11000 Quad electrostats. I l... | |
| Classical Music on the Radio My favorite and I think one of the best classical stations (and I have heard many over the years) is still WLRH Huntsville Alabama. Sound quality via internet radio on a Roku Soundbridge is very good which makes it a practical option for a variety... | |
| Focal Profile 918 presentation The entire Profile series didn't sound all that limited when I heard them. They are Focals mid though not top line, aren't they? They did most everything extremely well with little compromise. I came close to buying a pair myself. A pretty nice "e... | |
| Linn Sondek Hype I've been most satisfied with my Linn Axis. It sounds better than ever with some recent system upgrades and has operated flawlessly since I bought it over 20 years ago.It sits on a 60+ lb solid oak coffee table and operates flawlessly at any volum... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Reb,Did you get the details regarding what mods were done to the driver for you? | |
| Vinyl and SACD rule when it comes to... So by corollary, may I conclude that redbook CD does not rule, I assume?Maybe so, but, so what? After endless discussions here and elsewhere, and lots of listening with my own ears, I still don't buy into the propaganda that the medium is too limi... |
