Philips 2007 Speaker
Would appreciate any help towards repairing a Phillips 2007 Speaker. The speaker appears complete but just can’t be. Separating the ‘two dinner plates ‘ reveals the cone and a moving iron driver unit hanging loose but connected to the speaker cables. The full weight of this driver unsupported by any means nor evidence of any support ever having been provided. Something is wrong here. Has anyone taken this model apart and or do you know the mechanics of the interior of this speaker. Many thanks. Frank.

Re: Philips 2007 Speaker
I have one of these, it is complete and undamaged and still has the wax seals (with impressions) so has never been opened up. There is just the one problem with it - it's open circuit .
If you can't find the info you need I might be persuaded to break the wax seals! |

I have rewound headphones and horns by hand before and have plenty of the right wire gauge. Before I take it apart though I want to be sure I can get the impression on the wax seals back. Like you do, I packed it away as soon as I discovered it was open circuit and it wouldn't easily come apart. I am not even sure I got as far as checking the in-line impedance switch as I think that was sealed too. My other excuse is it is untouched and it seemed a shame to mess about with it. |
