Jim, go to Antique Electronics. The web site is www.tubesandmore.com
They have a sort of speakers that are new and come in 12 or 10 inch and the often needed 4 ohms for the older Collins radios. I just bought 2 of these and they cost around $40 each. -73- Peter K2LRC www.k2lrc.com In God We Trust ! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Wilhite Sent: Monday, October 19, 2009 5:46 PM To: AM Radio Discussion List Subject: [AMRadio] I need som advice Boy my ears are pinned back on this one. I need a 10 inch speaker for my old HQ 129 speaker. The cone in the present one is just about gone. So I thought about shellac and toilet paper or something similar, but am not that good with my hands. So I looked a couple of places on the web. I haven't looked for a speaker since about 1959, and needless to say, one like I would like to have is nearly $100. Now am I crazy or is this high? All I would like to have is a round, mid-range speaker that is 10 inches in diameter which won't require I sell my home to buy. Can any one steer me to a place other than what I find on the search engines. The first 10 pages or so is all full of speaker sellers who pay to be listed and list only stuff the audio nut would buy. Jeeze!
