1950's 12" Magnavox driver
« on: 4 May 2008, 08:35 pm »
Another old speaker question... I have an old 1950's Magnavox 12" driver that came out of a tube system with a receiver and turntable. The driver weighs a few pounds, has a transformer with 3 of 5 wires feeding into what I assume to be the primary.  The other 2 go directly into the speaker. The transformer feeds 2 wires, probably out of the secondary, to the speaker. The cover over the magnet has "583093" stamped on it and the basket has "P232 116 1D3903" stamped on it. Any ideas on specs or any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Do a Google search for speaker EIA codes and you will probably find the info you need, the picture looks like a Jensen but I believe 232 is a Magnavox number and I don't know who made their speakers.
