Most expensive speaker . . . ???

I've never seen one of these:

Vintage Jensen
Any idea what this thing is?

You might want to ask Ted Weber I'm sure he would know

It's a field coil speaker with it's own power supply for the coil. Belongs in a museum. You certainly would not want to try to shoehorn it into a guitar amp or use it for your home theatre. Plus it's damaged, you'd have to send it to Ted or someone for a recone, and then you'd also have to service the coil supply. Gimmie a PM speaker anyday.

You ever see one of those old EV foam cone 30" woofers?

I would love to find a working EV 30W. I have an idea for a dipole subwoofer that would work with that.

I love that - cone is torn, voice coil rubs, otherwise it's in excellent condition...
