Unusual output transformer Triad

Not open for further replies.
I've had this Triad S-46A output transformer that I'd like to figure out how to use, if possible. I found it listed in a 1960 Triad catalog but only on the price list. $32.00

The schematic on the bell looks like a choke, it's missing the usual primary:secondary listing, it seems to have just a secondary. Anyone ever seen one before? Anyone know if it's useful?

It's a 20W transformer for installing in a speaker, for an installation with multi-speakers and a long wiring run.
It connects to an amp with a high impedance secondary winding, and steps down that impedance to the low
impedance of the speaker.
