Hahaha, you would have a set of these.

Mine are 137 7413 and 137 7414 respectively.

They also have 5812484 written on each magnet.

Do you know anything about them? Besides the obvious fact of their utter cheapness.

The 137 is the CTS OEM code. Made in April 1974. I put them up on the shelf & haven't done anything with them. I could pull em out and measure them.

And even with there "cheapness" they might sound just fine with a little teakage. Likely open baffle material.

For sure open baffle, I tried that the minute I got them home and that was the only way they would perform at all.

I really feel they need a serious breaking in. Stiff as hell.

If you do get around to measuring them, please send me the parameters

Anyway, I'll keep tinkering with them and see what I get. Would you say it's best to rip these silver caps off as others have suggested or leave them on?

My guess is that they would change from FRs to midranges without.
