I bought a pair of Ohm MicroWalsh Talls. Ohm only sells directly from the warehouse in Brooklyn. I wasn't satisfied with anything else that I had heard in the stores (or hi-fi shows...) so with Ohm's 4-month return policy it was worth a try.
It is a little strange to plunk down money on speakers without hearing them first, but I'm glad I took the offer, because I was able to hear the speakers in my home, against my old ones (psb). Of course it was all hooked up to my gear, so there were no issues with equipment or demo room acoustics. I have never heard gear in a store and have it sound the same in my home. I kept the speakers because for a grand, nothing could touch 'em (I compared a lot)!
