| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? bondman, here is the quote from one of my earlier posts. "Ok, the jury is in.The Walsh 4s win.After much listening and knob twisting, there is now no doubt.The W4s have more definition and are more transparent.I was able to turn the bass up a notc... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? My engineering experience tells me to believe what you actually measure and not what someone else tells you. Also, many magazine guys, in all fields, are typically writers first and technicians last. And I have first hand experience on that one.Be... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Peter, thanks for all this engineering work. It is fun to "see" what is going on with these speakers. I concur that the mid-range can be attenuated in the Ohm-Walsh speakers. My 4XO speakers sound good, but the mid range needs some boosting to sou... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Ok, the jury is in.The Walsh 4s win.After much listening and knob twisting, there is now no doubt.The W4s have more definition and are more transparent.I was able to turn the bass up a notch on the tone control which gave it enough kick to satisfy... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I basically agree with what Bondman just said.Here is my recent experience comparing various Ohm speakers.Ohm-Walsh 1Nice sound, but lacking bass; if I didn’t compare with a Walsh 2, I would have been satisfied. I used it with a subwoofer for awhi... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bondman, I don't see changing my music system anytime soon unless I move to a different house so the Ohms are here to stay. I like the fact that they sound good even in another room. Apparently, this is a characteristic of the omni aspect of their... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Here is an update on my Walsh 1/2.200 upgrade.I have allowed some months to pass for break-in. Recently, I bought some old Yamaha NS-6 speakers at a yard sale for $10.I proceeded to recover the grills and replace the drivers as a gift for my son.T... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Nice write up.Thanks for taking the time to report on your experiences.It is helpful to read a comprehensive finding on the Ohms.I'm still breaking mine in, but I do enjoy them everyday. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? avsjerry,I don't think the "pillow" procedure will be applied unless she finds out how much I have spent on audio gear lately...just saying.My temporary solution is to just unplug the TV RCA cable when I want to listen to music seriously. I wish t... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman, Yes, that is probably what it is.Thanks! | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Ok, it may not be a cross-over exactly, but there are some electronics attached to the input board and there is switch and some capacitors. I have a photo if anyone is interested. My TV related speaker hum ended up being a bad set of RCA cables be... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Frazeur1, the old board was removed with a hammer and is destroyed in the process. The new board has the driver already mounted and fits into the existing space after all the old glue/board remains are removed. I used a file to help smooth things ... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Finally got the time to install the upgraded 2.2000 drivers in my Walsh 1 cabinets. The install was straight forward, but did require some finesse to install the drivers in the top of the cabinet. I'm not a wood guy so I had to pay attention to re... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I'm expecting my Walsh 2.2000 upgrade tomorrow.It will be interesting to hear the difference.Any tips on the install?Since I am using the Walsh 1 cabinets, no crossover removal is needed. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bondman,The hum I'm getting is with the TV on or off. It only went away when I disconnected the audio cables from the TV to the preamp. I ordered a TII 220 Ground Loop Isolator for the cable box connection and hope this fixes the issue. |
