Hello Ron:
That makes perfect sense. I should have figured that out since the cut off cord was too substantial for only a normal residential use audio feed. At first I thought that it was an electrodynamic speaker because of the heavy duty speaker lead and the substantial weight of the speaker, but alas, on closer inspection, it was only a PM seaker unit. I've seen the square, boxy 1937 Philco PA system speaker shown in your second link before, but not this one. In fact I think I have one somewhere around here if I can find it. Actually, I also have that Philco ventilator unit around here too:-) The things I don't know anything about are usually the things that I find most interesting.
At any rate, can this speaker work with one of the early ac receivers such as the Philco mdl 511, 512, 513's, or will the speaker impediance be a problem?
Thank you for your help.
