philco 80 jr. help please. 1st time restoring a radio this old
#32

thanks guys,

yes, after seeing some pics of other peoples' speakers i felt quite lucky to see a complete intact cone when i removed mine.

as per Ron's suggestion, i am going to brush some mineral spirits on the cone to give it a little bit of resiliency.

if anyone thinks this is a bad idea, please speak up and let me know why.
