Hi Wes,

I wired up a jack socket to it this morning and tried the rec out from my Roland Micro cube.

It worked, but it was much quieter than the Micro cube's own little speaker !

I presumed the + went to the 7.5 ohm connection and - went to the terminal marled "com"

Was that correct? or am I a dumb arse :o)

I just realised that for some reason my original message with the first pic didn't appear.

Bought the cab at the bootfair for £2 thinking it would probably have a naff or shot speaker and to my delight discovered a 12" Celestion in there !! along with the speaker matching transformer.

Not sure how to connect it up as a cab for my Fender Greta valve amp, but a friend seems to think the way it's already wired up should be ok, as most amps these days require 8 ohms and it looks like it's connected for 7.5 to 15

Looks good and reminds me of some Maddog has made.

Hi Uncle John,

Here's a pic of the speaker, No markings on it to say what Ohm rating it is though.

Nice.  Looks like an old PA speaker.   Give us some description?
