The Walsh 2XO replaced the Walsh 2.  We used real wood veneer cabinets.  The XO stood for eXtra Output because this series was more sensitive than the earlier series.  It used the same Walsh 2 cabinet and grill with the Walsh 2XO driver.  None of the XOs had controls. There are Ohm and 2XO logos on the cabinet at one corner.  There is nothing inside the cabinet nor 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.  When set up for peak performance, the Ohm logo should be on the front of the left speaker and the 2XO logo on the front of the right speaker.  The Walsh 2XO should be set up eight to ten feet apart, with the labels on the inside front corner to benefit from the best 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 $995 for the return of a complete undamaged pair of Ohm 2XOs toward 25% of the purchase price of new Ohm speakers.
