Mine is blown :(

Any opinions on the vintage vibe replacement speaker?
I guess an alternative is one of the various 6x9 4 ohm speakers on eBay or some other seller?

thanks for opinion...

Have you tested the speaker with another amp to be 100% sure it's the speaker?

Just remember that you do not need a hi fi speaker for this. (A car stereo speaker that reproduces 20-20,000hz or so)

Wurlitzers range from 55hz- just over 2,000hz. (not including undertones/ overtones)

Yep I tested the speaker with another amp.
And visual inspection revealed the speaker itself is torn.
So alas the speaker needs to be re-coned.
I imagine it is cheaper to buy a replacement although I am going to look into re-coning.

Look on eBay. People scrap old organ tone cabinets all the time.
