That is great John but look at the freq response of that speaker...Great low end but only goes to 4 K on the high side... Some of these SW Stations are going out to 12 and 15 K...Great for AM Amateur Voice use..Check out this 8 inch at http://www.penton-usa.com/finalpdf/LCS8XT72.pdf ... It goes out to 16K and cost is $18. Wholesale...Pro Net is $32...Take off the grill and transformer...The tranny is great as a 500 ohm to 8 ohm conversion. Throw the grill away LOL... Like I said to Brian use a pair of these and they will rock from a push pull amp or even a single ended amp...

Maybe Brian intends to put a pair of 805 between the receiver and the speaker and play some guitar. At any rate I'm sure he has his reasons. I might go with this one (http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Part number=290-486), and even it is an over kill but selection of 12 inch speakers with less than a 20 watt rating are few and far between. Many times I will cut a board to fit where the speaker goes and then mount a smaller speaker to the board. In most cases the smaller speaker has better sound due to modern manufacturing and tech specs than the older one. http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partn umber=290-486 73, John -----Original Message----- From: amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Bob Peters Sent: Friday, September 04, 2009 6:02 PM To: 'Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service' Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Hallicrafters R-12 speaker WOW That is way overkill for Ham Radio ...Bob -----Original Message----- From: amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of WA5AM Sent: Friday, September 04, 2009 5:45 PM To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Hallicrafters R-12 speaker This one here: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID =7&Partnumber=290-834&ctab=2#Tabs 73 Brian On 9/4/09, John Coleman <j...@pctechref.com> wrote: > > I'm curious Brian, what is the one that you intend to get? > John, WA5BXO > > -----Original Message----- > From: amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto: > amradio-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of WA5AM > Sent: Friday, September 04, 2009 4:42 PM > To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service > Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Hallicrafters R-12 speaker > > Thanks John.
