1948 Philco C4608/ Mopar 802 radio
#5

Hey everyone,
This may be a dumb question so I apologize Icon_crazy , but how much of a difference would it make if I were to go from a 4 ohm voice coil to say a 6 ohm one? Here's the story. I found a correct original speaker on Ebay and would like to use it if possible. The problem is that when I got it the speaker cone and voice coil were in such bad shape they pretty much disintegrated at the slightest touch. I found a correct replacement cone but am having trouble finding a suitable replacement  4 ohm 1 inch diameter voice coil. I've also tried my hand at making a replacement coil but not having much luck. I just received 2- 6 ohm voice coils I ordered online and physically they are a good fit but they are a higher value than the original. Just wanted to get some input, thanks!
Kevin
