Thoughts on a McMurdo Silver Masterpiece VI Speaker
#18

Allegiance to the Jensen field-coil pedestal speakers comes from the use of them by the Electrical Research Products division of Western Electric in their movie sound reproduction systems of the 1930's. Some were even rebranded, making them even more 'holy'.

Obviously they weren't bad speakers, and in the day were just about the only thing that could handle the power @ frequency needed in a large movie house.

A radio in your home with one or more would have been ne plus ultra in terms of audio reproduction.
