Re: Speaker question

reventlos - 10 Apr 2006 16:07:50

Hey Mike---If you're still confused, just look where the transformer
thingie is mounted. If it's on the frame of the speaker, it's just the
output transformer that would ordinarily be on the chassis in most amps
(I also have a bigger Dano amp with a 12" that has the transformer on
the speaker). In that case, just replace the speaker and mount the
transformer anywhere that's convenient. If it is a field coil speaker
(it will have wires going into the magnet), that's more of a hassle, as
they need to be reconed (good luck) and you have to remove the thing
from the circuit. One more thing: On some small amps, like Fender
Champs, they used oddball 3.2 ohm speakers. Be sure to find out the
impedence of yours before ordering a replacement. If it's fried, try
to find some numbers on it. If it's just ripped, you can still measure
it with a meter. You want to get the correct one for best
performance. Good luck, Matt Q.

See this post in context.
