I recently purchased 2 non working Infinity WALSH Tweeters off of E-bay with the sole purpose of seeing if I could rebuild them and make them work again.
I got them earlier this week and after 2 full days of playing with them I am happy to report I was successful.
I now completely understand how they work and how they were built and I am now ready to offer the service to other Infinity Owners out there.
So if you have an original set of Infinity Speakers that use the WALSH Tweeter and you need your tweeters serviced for any reason I am your man.
I have 2 working INFINITY WALSH TWEETERS of my own in stock and would be glad to repair or restore yours.
I got my two ( with were completely non-functional ) to work perfectly again.
I am sure I can do the same to yours.
Please contact me if you have other questions.
-----------------------------------
Used in the INFINITY MONITOR ( 1973 ) and MONITOR IIA ( 1975 ) Speakers
May also have been used in other models as well.
Bid is for ONE TWEETER REPAIR.
If you need a PAIR REPAIRED please BUY TWO.
These have NOT been made for many years and as far as I know NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO SERVICE THESE BUT ME.
I am here for you.
Please also see my other auctions.
If you want me to repair your Original INFINITY WALSH TWEETERS you must send your original tweeters to me complete and well packed.
I will them test them and rebuild them as needed to make them function properly again.
I have no extra parts so each one will be restored or repaired with the parts received.
I do have a limited ability to make some of the things I need so the more complete your speakers are the better my end result, but I will try my best to fix all those sent to me, the best I can.
Return shipping is $25 each in the USA and $50 each overseas and Canada.
If you let me restore them for you, you should not have to service them again for 15 years or more.
Just plug and play.

Unique Speakers
Some of the finest sounding, most critically acclaimed speakers are unique designs that operate much differently than conventional box speakers. Many of them are priced out of the range of most consumers. Fortunately, many are not, and can be had for the same price as more ordinary designs. You will not find them at mass market retailers. They are only sold direct from the manufacturer or at audio specialty shops. One of my favorites are discussed in detail here.
The unique Walsh driver in operation. A single pulse travels down the cone, reproducing the entire audio range with one driver.
The line of Ohm Walsh speakers use a unique driver designed by Lincoln Walsh. Lincoln Walsh was a brilliant engineer who was part of the engineering team that developed radar during World War II. He later designed audio amplifiers, and his final project was a unique, one-way speaker with one driver. It was a large cone that faced down into a sealed, airtight enclosure. Rather than move back-and-forth as conventional speakers do, the cone rippled and created sound using a principle known as “transmission line”. The new speaker created a single, perfectly rendered sound wave of remarkable clarity. A new company, Ohm Acoustics, was formed to develop and market Walsh’s new speaker design.
From left to right- Ohm Walsh 2, Ohm F, Ohm A
Lincoln Walsh died before his speaker was released to the public. After developing the Ohm A prototype, in 1973 Ohm introduced the Ohm F speaker to critical acclaim. The Ohm F could reproduce audio signals more accurately than any other speaker, and had a truly spectacular sound. (Thirty years later, the Ohm F still sounds better than many of today’s most expensive, most exotic speaker designs.) Unfortunately, the Ohm F was also a very expensive. All the way back in 1982 they cost $4,000 per pair !
