I took the speaker out for testing, I checked the dc resistance of the field coil (1200 ohms), audio transformer (Pri 422 ohms) (sec .8 ohms) and the voice coil seems to be OK. I am no expert when in comes to these old type speakers with field coils. I attached a photo which I labeled with what I think is the wire colors for each of the three terminals . Am I correct with the colors and also are these the only 3 wires I need to connect to the radio?
