Speaker repair sources update
#1

I contacted the three names listed in the resource section of this website to see about getting the speaker for my PT-94 reconed. Here's what I found:

Hank Brazeal's wife said he has suffered a stroke and no longer does speaker repair.

Orange County Speaker doesn't service the old electromagnetic speakers: "We don't work on those types of speakers. We don't carry any parts or anything aftermarket that would work for it. We mainly repair large PA Speakers (JBL, EAW, Altec, Community, etc.)"

Both, however, recommended this source:

Vintage Radio
Tony Cerasin
900 Crestview Dr
Newberg, Oregon 97132
503-538-2392

They specialize in vintage and antique speakers.

Jackson Speaker Service - Speaker Reconing by Ron McGee, is still in business, and Ron quoted me $45 for the reconing plus $7 for shipping. Turn around is in about a week.

Just thought I'd post this for what it's worth. This is just a little 4" diameter speaker, so obviously a speaker for a big console will probably run more.
