The Walsh 1 is the least expensive Walsh speaker Ohm has made using real wood veneer cabinets.  It used the Walsh 2 cabinet and grill with a simplified Walsh 2 driver.  It had no controls and no logo on the cabinet itself,  but an Ohm logo on the cloth grill.  There is nothing inside the cabinet or driver that requires periodic maintanence.  There should be a label under the grill that says ''aim toward center of room''.  This label should be opposite the corner where the wires are coming out of the driver can.  The Walsh 1 should be set up six to eight feet apart, with the labels on the inside front corners for peak performance and Full Room Stereo effect.

The driver can be upgraded to the new Walsh 100 Mk-2 which allows for the bass to be extended down and the treble to have wider dispersion.  All necessary parts can be installed with a screwdriver and hot glue gun and takes only 20 minutes.  The upgrade comes with a 3 Year Limited Parts & Labor Warranty, assuring you of years of  listening pleasure. 

Ohm allows up to $595 for the return of a complete undamaged pair of Walsh 1s toward 25% of the purchase price of new Ohm speakers.
