| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Rbf1138 - I checked out your photo - from my experience, Ohms work best in slightly damped rooms. They throw a big image, and if the room is too live, things get muddled. Do you have rugs on the floor, etc? From what I can see in the photo it look... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I used Kimber 4TC and Analysis Plus Clear Oval - They both worked fine.4VS would be good too.. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? That's nice that you got at least a little bit of time in. Something to look forward to, when you get back... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Kbuzz - Interesting... I moved from my MWT's to a pair of Harbeth P3-ESR's. I had the Ohms for quite a while, but the bass was too much for my room, so I really needed a good pair of monitors. I miss my Ohm's but I now know that I made the right d... | |
| Can Harbeths Perform Well In Nearfield Listening? Harbeths are one of the best at performing in the near field - that's often how they're used...The P3's will work the best in a room that small - anything else will be too big IMO. If he has a fondness for the BBC sound - then the P3's will suffic... | |
| Rega Brio R vs Wyred or Bel Canto Panu21 - I'm using a Simaudio Moon i-3 integrated - great combination with the P-3 Harbeths. I replaced a Cyrus 8vs2 with this amp and saw a big improvement (more than I was expecting). The Moon is much more refined... | |
| Integrated for Harbeth Small Room System Hey thanks for those comparisons. I switched from a Cyrus 8vs2 to a SimAudio i-3 and saw a big difference in speed, bass and refinement with the Sim - no contest between those two... | |
| NOLA Boxers in my space Not to derail this thread (I like Nola Boxers BTW) - my heart sank when I head PJ Harvey's latest album. Bjork's album isn't as bad, but it's not happenin' either...I threw up in my mouth when I saw that ToneAudio put PJ Harevey's album as one of ... | |
| Rega Brio R vs Wyred or Bel Canto Anonymoustao - I'm also a Vandy fan, but definitely look into Harbeths - a lot of guys end their upgrade search with these speakers - I have some P3's and I love 'em. | |
| Best "small footprint" speaker between $600-1000 I'll third the Ohm MicroWalsh... | |
| Smooth/Musical Bookshelves upto $1500 - $2000 I listen to a lot of rock and hip hop, and I think the P3's bass is very good - especially near field. I find ATC's only sound good at louder volumes - plus Harbeths are easier to drive... | |
| Smooth/Musical Bookshelves upto $1500 - $2000 The perfect speaker in this type of set up is the Harbeth P3ESR. Their bass response is excellent - near field listening cannot be beat. They're broadcast monitors, so they're designed for detailed, musical, fatigue free listening, all day long. | |
| ProAc Studio 100 vs. Proac 1SC vs. Harbeth P3ESR I've heard the 100's in both demo rooms and recording studios - great speakers, but I have P3-ESR's. Honestly haven't heard the 100's in a while, but I just really dig Harbeth so that's what I'm into. From memory, I found the 100's a little too bo... | |
| Hi Fi Dealers in NYC - where to find them? Definitely outside the City is better. Years ago I had a conversation with a very well know speaker designer. I told him I was in NYC and he directed me to audio connection in NJ. He told me to avoid the pompous NYC store that carried his gear! So... | |
| Recommended Bookshelf Speakers $1200 Nola Boxer, if you can stretch your budget to 1500. |
