What speakers are these?

walsn · 6th February 2010, 03:22 PM

Recently picked a pair of used 8" Dynavox speakers model FA-801. Found no information in the net (I found modern woofers Dynavox but don .t know if is the same brand). They have a white paper cone, cloth acordion type surround (of red color) .The original dust cup was white. I replaced it with a new one. Then i could see it has a "short coil in long gap". The motor assembly is big and heavy. The gap is 12 mmm long , the VC near 8 mm. long and 39 mm diameter with aluminium former. Despite the air susension label it seems to be a low compliance/ short excursion unit. Anybody knows them? Thanks for any information
