model 20 speaker
#1

Will a speaker from an philco 89 work in  model 20?
#2

Well.....the Field coil in 20 is 3100 Ohm and in 89 is 1100 Ohm.
You will need to add a resistor in series if putting the 89 speaker in 20.

And this does not account for the transformer. It has to be replaced by a P-P as it is a SE.


Also, the 89 speaker is 1.2 Ohm VC and I do not remember exactly but I think the 20 is 0.7 Ohms VC so the Philco transformer will not match the impedance properly even if it will work not optimally, so you might need a new transformer, like a Hammond with adjustable In/Out ratio.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

You can probably save it using coils on the wire leads. Try unwinding a tad off each end of the rf coil.RodB — 09:47 PM
