    Can anyone ID this woofer it is from a set of Harvard Loudspeakers Circa 1976

    I got these speakers when I was young circa 1976 "Christmas" they came in a pair of Harvard speakers.Which I still own Hard to part with Speakers.But anyway i took apart these speakers for the first time,never really had to as they still work they just need to be re-foamed now.I was astonished by the tiny A$$ speaker magnet on it.I knew it was going to be cheap, but not this cheap !!!! Well anyway I was just wondering if anyone knows who actually built the speaker.I took some pictures of the #'s on the stamped basket and of the cone. Thanks for any help/replies !

    BTW Check out that magnet that is a 12" woofer :laffingassoff: :lol: my side hurts now ! Thanks !

    No other knowledge than:

    Both the planet10 and Weber's page are spec'ing EIA 117 as 'Credence'.

    Speaker Codes, Amps, & More
    EIA Speaker Codes



    Now, if you find out that the midranges were made by 'Clearwater' ... ;-)

    There were 4 digit codes, couldn't find 1174
    Though from looks I would think these guys...

    1191 Micro Magnet

    The more I look at them though, they may have been made by a non EIA mfr.

    I wouldn't bother refoaming...replace with better at the cost of refoaming.
    Your neighbors called. They like your music.

    Thanks OG !! They needed to be refoamed about 15 years ago that's why I never refoamed them I knew they were nothing special more sentimental,if I get bored one day and can get foams for a couple bucks then maybe.They came in sealed enclosures as a 3-way air suspension Freq.Resp. 25Hz-20Khz didn't sound too bad for a young boy. Until I was introduced to Altec Lansing a short time later.
