In 1924 Western Electric introduced the "Hornless" 540 A-W loudspeaker. It was innovative and opened the door to a new radio experience. Many of these speakers today are lacking their cones and suppliers are scarce. Most are in bad to fair condition. We are going to restore the pedestal and base, and using a cone supplied by Buford Chidester, co-author of the book "Classic Cones" we will bring this gem back to life. The cone installation is relatively straight forward, but does have it's quirks.

That was fascinating. I have never seen a speaker like that before.

this is not the proper way to restore antiques. You've destroyed the patina of that antique speaker.

I don't mess with radios, cabinets, or speakers that are in good shape. I will redo them if there are issues, and this one had issues. Patina isn't always a good thing, in this case it wasn't.
