RCA Radiola 18 Speaker
#8

Hello Joe. I have a good-spare Radiola 18 orig spkr assy here, missing the orig metal 100A housing. I recently fully restored a customers model 18 , that had a matching spkr with it when they brought it in for restoration. While I had the set here on my workbench, I tested my spare orig mod 18 spkr assy, & it sounded great. The cone is still perfect also. If you can find a good 100A cabinet, Ive got the orig mod 18 spkr here for you to install in it. I think there are some new repro 100A cloth spkr cables with the vintage pins to attach avail on the net,( cant remember the website I saw them listed before),.. but then again, you may find a good all orig complete spkr on ebay. Theres lots of those orig RCA 100A spkrs still around these days, not too hard to find at all. Lots 100A types were originally produced & sold back in the day! wink:
