Ron,
Based on the part numbers, the escutcheon and related items are different.  Based on measurements taken by the individual I am planning on purchasing the baby grand cabinet from, the actual dual card is the same.

Fortunately, the seller has the escutcheons, etc. What he does not have is the speaker.  My output transformer has one half of the input winding open, so I am desperately looking for an 8" speaker with a field coil and a push-pull output transformer.


Thanks,
TerryMSU
