Hi all
I scored a really great set of C-38's last week. Ebay purchase for 1000 with pickup required.
They only had a spill issue to the finish, and the crossovers need deoxit treatments.
D130 woofers perfect, 075's seem good, N2600's poor pot action.

So here goes the first question, can anyone date these? The pristine grille labels are smooth faced, and not the cast brass type. Grilles slide out the bottom slots, and these don't have a back panel for the energizer amp.
serial numbers on D130 = 49138 and 49139
serial numbers on 075 = 9787 and 9737
N2600 crossover 9054 and 9055, 16 and 32 ohm switching HF and LF

There is another tallboy C-36 I was looking at buying, but the seller said it had no slot in the bottom, and the back panel would not come off. How did the grille come off the other type with front installed components? Mine are rear installed componenets, and I notice the other type C-series enclosure had front installed drivers.
On the other type, there appears to be a block of wood at 12 oclock high... does that hold the grille in?

I am confused about what they actually call these to. C-36 refers to low boy or high boy enclosures right? So why did they come up with a C-38 name? Can C-38's be low boy and high boy? Is mine called a Baron or Viscount? Or no name other than C-38?

The cabinet is 24W x 19.5T x 16 Deep
