philco 50-1718 help
#1

hello,

i acquired a philco 50-1718. it is missing its speaker.

can anyone tell me if the impediance is 4 ohm or 8 ohm ?

can someone meter their speaker and let me know the dc resistance ?

the online schematics that i have seen do not tell me the impediance.

thanks for anyone 's help. i can be emailed at vinyltocdr@msn.com

thanks

steve

Like I said in your other message, here on the Phorum, 3.2 ohms is the original speaker. A 4 ohm unit will match ok too.
