I guess it's time for me to consider purchasing a Fluke multimeter. My digital multimeter is proving itself to be very unreliable, giving voltage readings that keep fluctuating around.
Well, it's an Extech (Radio Shack) unit that I've had for about eight or ten years, so I guess I managed to get my money's worth out of it and it's time to retire it.
So I pulled out my cheapie Harbor Freight analog multimeter.
Mondial, here's what I'm getting with it. Consider the cheapie meter used as you look over these results.
Cathodes - all around 14 VDC
A,B,C,D - all varying between 2.8 and 5 VDC
I've checked and doublechecked my wiring and it is correct.

As Rod said, it is OK to use a fitting speaker, and then look for an original one.
