I have very kindly been lent a pair of these drivers. Can anyone shed any light on them with respect to their specification and suitability for OB use? (with 2 X Alpha 15A's per side)

Very grateful for any information whatsoever, thanks!

Got info from a 1979 Wilmslow Audio catalogue -

CG8 -
Voice Coil - 1"
fs - 50
Range - 45-10khz
Power - 20w
Price - £10ish
Was used in the RA 'Super Triple Kit'

If that helps (not really but hey

)

Hi Rob, and thanks. I was thinking they may have been full range, obviously I was wrong! again, thanks.

There was a CG8T model which had a whizzer and response up to 15k

Aha...that must be what lead me to think it was an FR unit! Thanks again.
