The field magnet on the 8'' is not the same size as the one on the 10''

Actually, it is the same size between Philco K series (8") and H series (10-1/2") speakers. I know, as I have removed field/pot assemblies from H speakers for use on K speakers. They are not only the same size overall, but the pole piece for the voice coil is also the same size.

And Rocklandman - Congratulations! That has long been one of my very favorite Philcos. I have always preferred the look of the late version 116B. I guess it is mainly because it looks different than most other Philcos, while the early 116B looks like an extra large clone of other 1936 Philco shouldered tombstones. I've been thinking about selling my early 116B, but I want to hang on to my late version 116B for the time being.
