    I'm not sure they'll have the extended range of the later, heavily revised version with dia-cone, and 3 inch voice coil..

    SOMEWHERE I have a data sheet for those. As Bowtie says the coil is smaller, I think the Alnico slug is also. The are probably worth the price, though I'd prefer the 406C.
    I need a 425 for my little Fender guitar amp.

    406A is small coil and stamped frame
    406-8y is larger coil and cast frame

    Thanks! Still, I wonder if specs are much different WRT cab alignments.
