Wondering what the fane crescendo m.v model is about, very little information around. the stamped number is 122315, is this the 16ohm version of the 12A ?

I don't think they are the 16ohm version of the 12A.
I have a Crescendo M.V. model 122437 (not completely sure as it is barely visible) and it's 8ohm.
You can see it here:

Mine was rewound at some point but the cone looks the same as on this one:

with stamped model no. 122343 and it's a 60W, cloth dust cap.

That makes me think that M.V. has to do with something else and it applies to different models.

It's not a 12A. Buy it if you like it, but don't pay a huge premium.
