Hello...

I am going to listen and possibly purchase a pair of 4312's this weekend. Cabinets and drivers are in excellent condition. Grills are missing, non-consecutive serial numbers, and slight variation in colors.

Is $500 a decent price??

Can someone please tell me what 3 factory drivers should be in these speakers(Model 4312).
Also, is there a big difference between all the 4312 models(i.e. 4312a, 4312b, 4312c, etc...)??

Thank you, Geno

Personally, I'd think that $500 could buy a LOT more speaker. Pretty much any 12" 3-way is a candidate.

There's at least a half dozen different versions of the 4312 around. You'll find tech sheets in the "Links" forum here.

The 4312A and I believe this to be true for the A's as well, the B and then the C,D,E series had 035TiA HF drivers, 104H-3 Mid range drivers and 2213H Low frequency drivers.

The E has 2213Nd-2, 105H-1, and 054Al-Mg. The 2213Nd-2 is a dual coil differential drive unit, different that the 2213H in the D. And the D has 105h/054Ti as the other drivers. But it's been 2 years, I bet the OP has either bought or passed since then, anyway.

I have many, many speakers..... but, I always enjoy the 4312s.... and, with the right amp they can get very loud with very little distortion...

$500 is a good price if they are in good condition.

I made the grills for mine and it is not hard if you have some hand tools and are handy.
