Apologize if this is elsewhere but I didn't see it in a search. My K6 speaker cone is beyond repair. Half of it is ripped out, the other half is torn in several places. Before I order a replacement I want to see if someone could verify the size:

8", 1.5" opening?

This may be in the materials I ordered from Chuck Schwark but I just ordered those, meanwhile I found a place for really inexpensive cones.
The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.

Just to make sure, you chose either 4 ohm into 5K or into 10K? (blk-org or blk-grn)morzh — 06:23 PM

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
