213 speaker question
#3

Thanks Ron. I was hoping to try and save the original cloth on my speaker but it was too badly damaged to repair. I ended up using a left over piece from another radio I did a while ago. It's a generic pattern with small diamond design in it. Not correct but it looks good in the speaker.
Also, I've read that many of these speakers no longer function due to the old pot metal deteriorating. When I replaced the grille cloth I looked mine over and the pot metal seems to be in very good shape. Some minor cracks but no loose pieces or swelling. Are there any of these speakers that are known to still work?
