Thanks for your reply Dave, my neighbour who is into Brit. gear told me the same thing today. Those speaker are nothing special and have been widely used, also in transistorized AC30 at some time. I'll be investing in some other gear firs before I decide on more cabs and speakers. Thanks for the inf...

Hi some folk is offering me 2 12" Fane speaker w. # 125139 inked on the chassis. The magnet have the blue sticker on it. I have a 70ies 4 X 12" cab loaded w. fane speaker that came from an Orange Box. I really love playing that cab. It has more rounded highs and a nice saturation. To my 19...

All right. I've finally wired it all up and did a test ride w. a 50 W Plexi head in my flat. It's sunday today so I didn't drive it to max, just at 4 or 5 Ha ha. What I haven't begun yet is installing the new Marshall style handles as my order is still on its' way. I was surprised to hear the cab be...

Cool, that's helpful. Will check Germany's TAD or some similar. Thanx bunches

Did HIWATT cabs originally come with clamps? I would have to fabricate them. But then I wonder if they had the rubber dampening ring the other way round.

Here's how it looks like

Hmm,..I try to figure out how to mount the speakers. It seems like the front panel is not removable, so I was assuming that the speakers attach as front loaders. But when trieing to do so two things just seem wrong. First the bolt radius is larger on the cab than it is the case on the speakers and s...

Yeah, I'll post a video once I get the chance.

All right, finally got the correct bolts from a local hard ware store. Pulled out a receptacle and took it to the shop. Unfortunately they only had them in stainless steel. I was glad to get this UNFE in my city, so with a whopping 30 $ I took them home with the washers. Anyway the right bolts to go...

Wow, that's very kind of you. Thank you so much.

BTW Dave, what kind of speaker did you load into the cab?

Definitely true Dave. I'll try to do that. Best

I'd measure the diameter of the thread and look for the nearest 'BA' bolt as a first choice. I'd guess 2BA, a common British bolt ( B ritish A ssociation...) used for many years, and rife in the '60s/'70s. Good luck.

Cool!! These came out of an Orange cab. Thanx for the good news.

I opened the box today and thought that the magnets are pretty small compared to what I've seen on other photos of other fane speakers. Is there a way to tell them apart from Alnico magnets. Any rule of thumb what a smaller magnet can do other than a bi magnet. I'm pretty new to speakers so, please ...
