Hartke? Please help me ID this beautifully made full ranger!

vaughn · 19th October 2011, 05:20 PM

I had an acquaintance who had an a pair similar to these, although I think his might have been 8" (these are 10"). The voice coil on his also extended further out. All other details are identical to his set. I believe I remember him saying they were Hartkes. I do know that he drove them with Conrad Johnson tubes and said they were his favorite speakers. I met him when I purchased a pair of Audio Nirvana 12's from him. Those moved down the road pretty quickly.

These were mounted in an approximately 2.5 cubic foot cabinet with what look like Phillips tweeters. No crossover on the 10" and a coil and cap on the tweeter.

Anyway, any insight?

Ah, Hartley...Yes

Note that the 7" Hartley is a tweeter.

Wow, that's a good size tweeter

The boxes on these are quite heavily stuffed. Luckily I have some 2uf MKP caps to replace the old units on the tweeters.

Even more luckily I've got a restored Eico HF-81 arriving today. It's going to be a good afternoon.
