Hello,
I previously posted about finding a replacement speaker for my Philco 84. Some of the responses mentioned using a speaker from a Philco 60 if I could not find an 84 model. I have been unsuccessful in finding an 84 speaker and the available Philco 60 sets are either to expensive or the speakers are bad. Is there a way I can retrofit this model with something else modern?  I want to get the set working and am not that interested in keeping it original. The cabinet is in great shape and I would like to get it working and am new to the hobby.

Regards,
Bob
