Understood--I'll try to get some together; however, as I look at it this morning, I doubt anything will show-up on the photos--I''l try nonethless. Thanks, Z, Steve

I just purchased a real nice D130F orange basket on e bay which arrived today. It was packed in a large box filled zealously with lots of soft packing paper--huge amounts to keep the speaker from...

K,

Thanks so much for walking me through this--be certain your efforts are genuinely apprediated. Best, Steve

KT,

Thanks very much for the rassurance--I'm pretty much a Neanderthal when it comes to speakers, and it's really good to hear I made a respectable purchase. I think you just made my day. Oh,...

Many thanks! Steve

Z,

Many thanks--that's very helpful. Let me make sure I've got this right, then: The orange and foil label speakers are identical, except the organe lable indicates the speaker was sold directly...

I've got my eye on a pretty nice looking D130F, a 1968. It has an orange sticker/label on the back of the dust cover instead of the yellow one I'm accustomed to seeing. Is this speaker any...

Hamilton,

It is pretty confusing to see how this stuff morphed. Add to that, the Pro started out with one fifteen--sounds like a VV to me (minus the 'verb', of course). I think the Pro and VV...

Greetings Edge, and thanks. That makes perfect sense to me. Indeed, I seem to recall reading somewhere that lots of Vibroverb officianodos prefer the K130 for just those reasons, also complaining...

Thanks, Travis. My Vibroverb is probably my favorite among my amps. though it's kind of a toss up with my rough tolex bassman, which really honks like in the old days.

I pulled the original CTS...

Sorry folks--I may not have been clear on this. It's just one speaker. You're right, HF, I'm pretty leary of the 'M' word as well. Its constantly tossed around in the vintage amp market, and seems...

Follow up for you here--I know this is a tough one to anwer, but my knowlege of speakers is pretty limited. How does $150 sound for a (purportedly) mint D130F, original cone, surrounds, etc.? I...

Thanks very much! Steve

Need a quick answer on this one if possible. I'm looking at a nice D130F for sale. On the dome it has "8 ohms - 16 ohms". Do they all say that? Does this mean the speaker can accomodate either? ...

My fault--in my excitement, I didn't see your reference to the site--I've found them there and will order up a couple different lengths and give it a try. Much appreciated! I'll let you know how it...

Zilch--I think that will work--can you tell me where I might find the 'standoffs'? Thanks so much, Steve

Bad news. Given crowding in the amp, it will not accomodate the 3/4 inch stock for a false baffle board.

I've done a lot of searching under 'barrell nut', T-nuts. 'connectors', etc. I've found...

Thanks much, Edge!

Thanks, all. I've spent a good part of the day in hardware stores, then specialy supply places looking for T-nuts and similar hardware, as well as connectors to 'lengthen' the machine screws. ...

I recently picked up a nice K130 for my Vibroverb, but, turns out, the mounting screws in the amp are nearly 1/4 inch too short (the original CTS speaker is a thin, stamped frame, versus the heavy...

EW--again, my sincerest thanks for sharing your time and expertise. Be certain it is genuinely appreciated. This is an impressive site, and I'm very glad I stumbled onto it.

I'll take your...

Thank you very much, one and all. Edgewound--yours is a counsel of perfiection. That's precisely the sort of information I was hoping to get. I'll certainly start thinking about the alternatives...

Thanks Mark. Here's something I've tracked down that will doubtless mean more to you than to a speaker Neanderthal like myself. Perhaps you could explain the implications--this is a response to some...

I'm brand new to the forum and, frankly, pretty ignorant about speakers. I'd like to install a D130 '15, 8 ohm speaker in my '64 Fender Vibroverb amp. These, of course, are not easy to come by,...
