Has anyone here used or tried Heppner speakers in the pursuit of vintage tone?

I have a couple I snagged out of my parents old 1965ish Hammond. Both measured around 15 ohms. One is smooth and one is ribbed (insert inappropriate punchline here). They look exactly like the ones in the pics. Supposedly the ribbed one is more tailored for lower frequencies.

They certainly look like old Jensen clones, but I've not put them in a cab and wired them in parallel to try them out. Just wondering if it's anything worth messing around with.

I doubt they could handle much wattage. Should I put them in my Twin Reverb and see how long it takes for them to explode and catch fire? Shocked
