I have a few more but they didn't post. I will get them on the BB when I have a little more time. The pics are a DIY K-horn pr. I made a couple of years ago. Pictures are taken with a Nikon Mavica. Used animal glue and stainless steel sheet metal screws for assembly.

Some interesting pics.

Q-man, I have an EV Patrician that was painted white. It was badly scratch, chipped byt eh former owner. I have stripped most of it off and sanded the enclosure. It's smooth and clean. I would like to repaint. but brushing paint on will leave brush marks and I don't have the spray equip. Can you suggest a method using spray paint in pressurized cans? John

Q-man---Where did you get the plans for the Imperial?

Steve P, All the factory units I've seen have been 1/2" birch ply for all panels except the front face and chamber panels which is 3/4". John

Gil, Are

Gil, A version made from 3/4" thick 14-ply will improve upon the factory version. John

JoshT, Tech HiFi, Harvard Sq., Cambridge? John

Chris, Radio Shack would be a place to start. If you are going to DIY speaker repair, it is an essential tool. John

put an ohm meter across the terminals. what is the value you measure?

The EV Ionovac can be seen at: http://community-1.webtv.net/KerrB/VINTAGETUBEAMPHORN/page4.html Scroll to the bottom of the page. jw

Electro-Voice and Dukane both beat you to it back in 50's. The horn loaded Ionovac tweeter was manufactured by EV as the T3500 and was used in the Patrician 800 (I think).
