Thoughts on a McMurdo Silver Masterpiece VI Speaker

Ron,

Ron ..That was the way to go why spend thousands on a speaker when you can make a couple of adjustments and put another speaker in its place. What are so special about the speaker that came with the set? With todays know how the speakers of today should be a lot better than the ones of the 1930's as long as they can be retrofitted. Let me know what you think.

Talk about a speaker having an impact!

Ron,

Thank you for the impedance info on the double field coil in post #10. I was able to test a Masterpiece V last week for my boss after wiring up a suitable choke, resistor, and output transformer based on your measurements. Now that we know the radio works, we can box it up and store it away for future work.

Thanks again,

Whirligig
