Hi Tony,

There is a square space that'll take an 8-inch speaker easily. I've ordered a cheap 8" from eBay, but as far as transformers go, that was missing too, so I've been using a 100 volt line transformer with a 2k resistor in series (not perfect I know, but a proper one from RS is nearly £20!)

I would definitely be interested in a more vintage appropriate speaker if you have one.

Tam
