"Unknown flying object"

[richluvsound]

Hey,

I just found a pair of these on a market and I was wondering if any of you guys might be able to tell me a little more about these? would be nice to know who made them...they are still working and they sound wondeful, even with the damaged cone...

I'm the least knowledable about these, but am still awake here in Seoul...

I believe those are some Western Electric coaxials, circa whenever. Novel engineering for their day. I've become quite a fan of coaxials in my day... :p

Hello

this is aold Philips (Niederlande) Speaker. Is a Fullrange , not a Coax. The bakelite funnel is a “klankverstrooier” like the Dutchman says. Not a Whizzer Cone. He is to distribute the high tones like lens.
