Oh My God is my only response. I can only imagine the impact of these! 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Hey Mapman!I've been seriously into headphones for the past 3 years, and for me the planar-magnetic models from Hifiman also have similar sonic qualities to my Ohms, especially in the midrange and treble.The Senns are just too rolled-off in the up... 
omnidirectional sound
They also pop up used every now and then, and the prices can be good. I just picked up my 3rd set of Ohm's, from a haedphone site, no less! 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Not sure. Right now I use an emotiva UMC-200 stereo amp for my older MWT's. I'll either get another stereo amp, and a 5-channel and possibly add a center. Lots of options, but the price and condition of the speakers were too good to pass up.

I just picked up a pristine set of MWT SE's off of Headfi for $700 plus shipping. From a headphone forum!

So, on the Amazon series "Bosch", the main character has Ohm's, being driven by an old McIntosh Amp with a Marantz turntable!

"Much to my surprise the nice UPS man (whose name I should know by now) brought my 2 MicroSubwoofers today! Thinking they would arrive a couple of weeks from now, clearly I misunderstood John. Guess what I'll be doing after work."Any updates on th...

Just to jump in, the experience Mrjktcvs had with Deftech totally echoes my own. I understand that the dipoles were sensitive to room placement and conditions, but they were absolutely the worst speakers for my situation that I ever owned.The MWT'...

"Yes, I walk the walk and talk the talk when it comes to OHM. I've wavered over the years, but ended up coming back. Home audio would hold a lot less appeal for me without the OHMs. They are most unique. Not for everyone, but OHM owners tend to be... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
While I'm not technically as proficient as a lot of the people in this thread, I do have experience with the MWT's in home theater without a center, and with Audyssey.As mentioned before, if there is hole in the image, they are too far apart. If t... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
"OHM has a long history, a dedicated customer base to go with it, and control over what goes into the can to make it "sound like an OHM"."Nice point!There is a lot about the Ohm's that I simply do not understand, especially regarding the propertie...

"Oh, and the sub based on the old F cabinet looks like it might be a beast!"How can you tell? I wanted to see it but could not find a photo."Coot, I briefly had a pair of F's. The bass out of those cabs was pretty startling. I can only imagine wha... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I remember when I ordered my WMT's, John was not thrilled with another black ash order, and he tried his best to guide me into choosing another finish. Not that he was hard-selling me, just using his gentle suggestion approach.But it's still my fa...

The new Ohm site is pretty incredible. It's like they just time-jumped from the early 90's to day in one leap.If nothing else, take a look at the impressive lineup of center channel speakers. Oh,m and surround speakersOh, and the sub based on the ...
