thanks for the advice earl. I wont do it again:o:. even being remagnetised wouldn't make the gaumont magnet powerful, but replacting with a field coil would work. making a ribbon voice coil isn't...
the permanent magnet in my copy was rather weak and I was able to pull the assembly apart to remove the phase plug and get a closer look, but didn't have the camera with me at the time (I was at...

i kept some pictures of the gaumont 379, hope that's some interest.
sorry steve, i should have asked his permission first, as he doesnt want to reveal his finds just yet - fair enough as he went to a lot of trouble finding them. he has put me to thinking i should ask...
having a 2090 on one horn and a 30150 on the other has been unsatisfactory, so I have bought a 288c for £300 from an ebay seller, who it turns out has a collection of old we equipment salvaged from...
what?
ive just discovered westrex were in business with celestion and vox. the 30928 12" is identical to the early celestion g12, famous for guitar amps. some of celestions g12's were made by westrex and...
have just got a replacement k55v diaphragm for the westrex 30150f from bob crites (he sent me a 'bad' one for free, to see if it fits, and it dont sound half bad). the voice coil is wire and the...
hi andy, just seen your post. where did you find them? im jealous. you remember i had a single bth 5b driver, it went to a japanese ebayer for not a lot. he also bought a 30150a for £860 + etc,...

oh and btw i soldered the 2090 voicecoil using tinned copper wire. it sounds tons better than the replacement from gpa.
ive just aquired another 30150f but this time with a completely destroyed diaphragm. the horn is awsome, a 805a with an adaptor for we555, now playing the 30150a and totally blowing away. i can see...
you are all totally wrong (and right). enjoyment of music is so subjective. we remember the experience of a piece of music bringing tears to our eyes (and the best is live, accoustic preferably)...
nobody's mentioned the alternative of field coil drivers..
the japanese are so hooked on these, pay megabucks and are even making new from scratch (shindolabs). is there something in their argument...
yes the gaumont kalee is a type 379 (made by B.A.F. Ltd ser. no. 751) has the slotted phase plug, a 2" threaded throat and has a round-wire voicecoil reading 14.0ohms. it doesn't weigh half as much...
[I notice that you own some drivers fitting 555 diaphragrms : are they 30150 units?
If yes, I am very interesting . I owned one a few time ago, but the diaphragm was gone, so...
Ive just checked...
thanks for the info. yes one of the drivers is a 30150, the other is similar, ill look it up. i believe the 30150 is cross shaped (has cross shaped magnet), while the other is round. sorry but my...
my grandad's old 2090 has a damaged voicecoil and has proved dificult to repair (aluminium wont solder). can i buy a cheap 288 replacement coil from the states as these seem to be identical. im new...
