414 16 ohm original cones?

saw these on ebay. No one seems to be buying them. They look nice enough. The only thing i can see is a W penciled in next to the cone #

Yeah 21060 are original cones. That what my 414-16b have also. I?m not sure about the W next to it. Mine don?t have that.

The W is for a Waldom made cone. AFAIK the lesser quality aftermarket one,

No it's not. Waldom cones do not have original numbers, aren't labeled in pencil, and start with WHF not W.

Have to agree with O.G. on this one. Different cone than a 417. Maybe the W designated woofer to the new hire,so he wouldn't use the wrong cone. It even looks like the C.P. Moyen Altec black glue though, applied carelessly.
