I found a homemade speaker box in some garbage and this speaker was inside. I can’t find a manufacturer’s name or any identifying numbers on it. it was wired to two 1/4″ jacks and someone had taken a catalog’s description of it and glued it inside the box. It pretty much gives me all the information but the manufacturer. This is what it says :

Model S-1288 II
Brilliant full-range 3-unit speaker for the critical connoiseur! Consists of twin tweeters on coaxial bracket and high pass crossover. Die cast! Engineered for maximum internal resonance damping and transient response. A complete “system” in one convenient unit!
Specifications : Freq. Resp. : 18-18,000 cps; Power : 35 watts peak; dual cones and twin voice coils with impedance of 4, 8, or 16 ohms. Overall dia. : 12 1/4″; mtg. opening : 10 5/8; Overall depth : 10 5/8. 15 lbs. $24.90

It also says that the magnet assembly is 3 3/4 lbs.

1 : People really like snacks, even if they tell you that they don’t really want any.

2 : If you have to move a lit hookah, pick it up from the bottom. If you don’t and it comes apart you should really concern yourself with the coal rather than the water. If you choose to step on the coal to extinguish it, you should first put on a shoe.
