AKAI Foster " Fe-103a " fullrange pair

Here are a pair of fully functioning 1970's AKAI "Foster FE-103a" fullrange loudspeaker drivers. 8 ohm nominal impedance. Black cloth suspension is nice and tight to the cone (unlike 50% of all Foster FE-103a). The magnet slug is hefty, just like the Foster. T-Line, Classic bass reflex or even as a dreamy mid.

c$55 + Canada Post

This pair long since sold...

Hi everybody,

I have some 12 years old loudspeakers at home. They

use JVC HSW 1199-01DAS AND HSW 1199-01FCS

ribbon tweeters. Two of them are broken so I am

looking for replacement. I know that these tweeters

were made not only under JVC mark but also under

other brands, so maybe anybody can help me to find a

company which still sells them for reasonable price, or

maybe somebody has it at home and would like to sell

it. I appreciate any help, thanks.
JVC Dyna-Flat Ribbon Supertweeters, made in Japan.

These were used in JVC's top dog ZERO series

loudpeakers from the late 70's. JVC's inhouse

Recycled.

 

[jmillerdoc]

Does recycled mean you sold yours? Or is this a bump?

 

[ARRAY]

Hi, I meant that I literally recycled them (i.e. tossed them in the blue recycling bin). I don't have the patience to try and sell this kind of stuff anymore...

[Wylie]

Are you still looking for a pair? I have a friend who has a pair of Apature R-10 speakers that have this tweeter, and she is looking to sell them. maybe she would sell the tweeters out of the cabinets.

Still looking...

Rare Realistic 5" Fullrange Pair

These actually are rare, probably 50 times that of an FE-103a. I've never seen or heard of a set before and there isn't much on the net about them.

But! They are a very nice driver.

( This guy has used them and they're his fav:

Fave single driver speaker - Techtalk Speaker Building, Audio, Video, and Electronics Customer Discussion Forum From Parts-Express.com )

Cat# 40-1311 - 5" Fullrange. Paper cone, aluminum dustcap, 1" v.c. and very healthy basket castings. High compliance cloth edge with real compound from the factory. Japanese, and I'd hazard a guess at Foster as the manufacturer. These were obtained from the original owner. If you want rare vintage construction and build quality in an el economico driver here they is.

I don't know how much postage will be to your location and I'll only do a grand total for a committed buyer (i.e. someone who says "YES - I'll TAKE them" hands down).

c$75 for the set.

I'll certainly build something with them if I don't get the asking money... sorry to sound harsh but I'm not dicking around for 75 bucks.

I worked it out and for 1980 they were around $100 / pr.

... I'd hazard a guess at Foster as the manufacturer.

I'd tend to agree. Look like a budget version of FX120.

[Zero Cool]

YES! that's the one's! I remember these very well! A friend had made a set of boxes with one of these and a soft dome tweeter for his 1973 Olds Tornado with a Rockford Fosgate amp and preamp! These worked very well as midrange drivers. not much bass as i recall but very good mids, I would love to see someone do a full range with these!

Preferred method of payment?

 

[ARRAY]

Hi Fud, actually the preferred method of payment is in silver coin but that medium works best if locally transacted of course. I don't have paypal or online banking (I've never had a credit card) - Madness isn't it? Cash or International Postal money order works well though.

I remember those very well. Didn't sell well, lasted only 3 years? First 'high-end' FR I was acquainted with. Made more than one set with those. Can't remember how many newspapers I had to deliver to afford them. Yes, the bass was a bit light but one box I made was the equivalent of a TL and they were fine. Back then, there was no need for a tweeter. With the aluminum cap right on the coil, the top end was fine.

Not sure where you arrived at the price. Is that an interpolation of today's market value?

I'd say it's bang on the money even in this economy. They probably didn't sell well because they cost too much at the time, but the young fellow who bought seems happy and I am too knowing they'll be housed in a box being enjoyed.
