Old peerless datasheet

[Aye75]

Does anyone know where I can find datasheets or ts parameters for old peerless speakers ??

Recently I just purchased a used peerless midbass/woofer with part no : 831894 and I was wondering if anyone has any data on these...since I searched all over the web but couldnt find anything

anyway thanks in advance

I've searched on google and found nothing...
However, I'm going to a friend of mine that fixes drivers, he has lots of catalogues and he may have info on your driver so I'll tell you later what I found out

I forgot to ask you if you can upload some pics of it

If that was out of a commercially produced loudspeaker, instead of a diy job, you might never find the Thiele-Small specs.

Peerless assigned part numbers for woofers made separately for manufacturers. When the manufacturer's run ends, the speakers find their way into job lots. In this case, if it is from a commericially produced, name brand speaker, only the manufacturer and Peerless engineering knows the Thiele-Small specs.

So far, I haven't come across a case where anyone contacted Peerless and got such specs.

I have two of this Peerless mid-woofer renamed by the italian distributor Coral Electronics EL 61 .
This datasheet is available on the internet

FWIW at this very late date, the T/S basics from a several year later posting:

Peerless 6" and 8" MidBass - Zerotohundred.com

Peerless 6" MidBass (831894) (8ohms)
Description:
Fs: 49 Hz
Qts: 0.69
Vas: 40.0 l
SPL: 89.5 dB - 1 W / 1 m
Impedance: 8 ohms
Outer target: 176 mm
Inner diameter: 144 mm
Magnet Diameter: 70 mm
Net Weight: 750 g

This makes me wonder if the Coral Electronics EL 61 is really 'just' a renamed 831894 or were Peerless specs this far off back then?

I'm sure of this because after I removed the adhesive sheet "Coral EL-61" it appear the original Peerless stick Qc 040805 Cat. no 831894 Z 8 Ohm.
Coral was a distributor of Peerless speakers and many speakers renamed Coral are in fact Peerless made.

Thanks! Good to know!

Is there a list of re-badged Peerless or other brands in the 'Corel' line-up?

TIA,
