Unhappy

I got one of those that was in bad shape and horribly modified. Had to chuck it. Whole thing damaged beyond repair . Someone attempted to make a radio cabinet out of it and use speaker for radio by removing power supply for speaker. Historical pieces lost cabinet in poor shape.

What is the voice coil impedance?

A low value means to be connected to a radio with audio output transformer.
High value is good for sets that have audio out directly from AF output plate. Some of those early ac sets have this.
GREAT idea to have speaker table and switch for radio. EARLY solid state power . Most electrified speakers ran off a tube supply.
Awesome to see you restoring this.
