    Color looks like an Altec, but the construction and design are not Altec...

    Sorry... no idea.

    Cool EIA #'s?

    You can try to find any numbers stamped on the frame in an EIA listing of manufactures.

    construction and design look like a vintage alnico coaxial speaker from Jensen

    Don't know the exact ref.

    (see JHP52 ref. from the 40's ...)

    Jensen was the first thought I had as well.

    Smile unknown driver

    By the color, I thought of Altec as well. There is a 145 in the stamp which would indicate "Cinaudagraph" but I was hoping someone would know for sure and maybe have a model number or some specs. Thanks so much for the replies. I am new to this site and it's great to have access to such a large group of people who know this stuff. Thanks again.

    Hmmmm

    I saw a Quam 12" like that years ago that was installed in a Jensen BLH.
    Definitely not JBL or Altec. I don't think the magnet is very big at all, just a large cover on the back.

    How does it sound?

    Regards, Ron

    Unknow Driver

    I haven't had a chance to hook it up but I'm definitely curious. The magnet actually is quite large. The cover just barely covers it. If I get time I'll post a picture with the cover off. Thanks.
