Acoustic clarifier why?
#1

A few years back, I helped a fellow collector repair the chassis on his 37-116.

When we had it ready to reinstall into the cabinet, I noticed some speakers which lacked voice coils in them. I found later that they were called "Acoustic clarifier speakers" which I assume work off of the sound waves bouncing around in the back of the cabinet?? (btw. This thing sounded amazing all put back together!)

The reason for my inquiry is, recently a member was looking to purchase one which was missing in his 37-116, I wonder if a similar sized speaker would work ? (not electrically connected of course)

Just curious.............

Chuck
