Hello
Subject: Radio Speaker Replacement
Hello Denver Radio Club.
Is there anyone who could help with basic electronic knowledge replacing a 3 inch speaker in a solid state late 70’s Panasonic clock radio? It has simple easy access, but I have questions requiring basic knowledge of speaker ohms:
• 3 inch round speaker with room for 3 1/2 or 4 inch
• Speaker is 32 ohm
• 6 W radio power
• It has something that may be an inline resistor soldered to it.
My questions for someone
knowledgeable are:
• 8 ohm and 4 ohm speakers are available online but what is the difference and what modification is needed if any from original 32 ohm 6 W power?
• Is that actually a resistor soldered to it or what?
I have called a dozen Denver electronic vintage and modern “repair” stores and no one will even discuss it. I have photos.
I could easily meet you on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at Sunrise Sunset 1424 S. Wadsworth Blvd Lakewood if possible.
Thanks for your consideration.
