Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Al--I see. What I thing comes much closer to reaching that goal is to listen to binaurally recorded music with headphones. I wish there was a large selection of such recordings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRih10xLhD8&feature=related. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I'm at a loss on what is really meant by a flat room. For instance, if the room is flat (at the listening position) according to a mike/meter in witch the mike has been calibrated to be flat, then to the human ear the room will not sound flat, bec... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I remember one time using an Audio Control C-101 equalizer to EQ my system's room response so it measured flat. The Audio Control unit came with a microphone and automatic EQ software to enable this to be done.The funny thing is the results absolu... 
Question about the TNT200 amp. covers.
Yes; I bought the Acoustat amp, preamp and the Acoustat 2+2 electrostatics back in 1983. The 2+2's sounded wonderful but I could not live with the small sweet spot so after 5 years or so I replaced them went with the Ohm's Walsh speaker which have...

Thanks for your responses. The exact same switch is still being made by Carling Technologies, BTW. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
The most remarkable audio illusion I experienced with the Ohms was when I was listening to environmental CD of breaking surf with the sound of seagulls, with eyes closed the room disappeared, it sounded as if I was really there on the beach. If sa... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
The issue I have with the OHM 5s is largely attributable to my L shaped room. Bass levels are up to snuff with the 100.3s in the smaller room towards the front of my main listening area but drops off further back. This is the L shaped room with th... 
History on ohm A's and F's.
07-22-09: MapmanDale, thanks so much for your (one of the most I have seen) detailed accounting of how the Walsh driver works.I've always considered the Walsh driver a truly a unique and vastly under-appreciated piece of engineering work IMHO desp...

Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
The first piece on this CD is a good demonstration of how well the Ohm's can reproduce the sounds of a pipe organ. http://www.hbdirect.com/album_detail.php?pid=30724 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I actually removed the grill/can on one of my Ohm speakers to find out if it was interfering with it's sound and could not detect any difference.

Reagrding the Ohm Walsh F & A Now Walsh TLS-I, II
http://www.hhr-exoticspeakers.comIt is wonderful to see a rebirth of the original Walsh speakers; it took a lot of dedication. One of a kind in design and there looking good. I hop the hear them some day, I am about a 90 miles or so from you. 
Ohm Speakers, thoughts?
Just to add my experience to this conversation. I have the Walsh 5's series 2 and drive them with a Carver amp. that outputs 600 watts per. ch. into 8 ohms and 1200 into 4 ohms. I have on occasion play them loud enough (in a 16' X 24' X 9' room) t... 
Who Do You Credit For Getting You Into This Hobby?
When I my parents took me to see "This is Cinerama" in the 50's. http://www.mtsu.edu/~smpte/fifties.htmlTo me, it is not a hobby. I watch TV sometimes, I listen to music sometimes.
