IIRC, the Lowther's are typically used in single-driver configuration ported boxes and highly sought after by the flea-watt SET congregation.
....just an "ON" switch, Please!

It is my father's PM4 from 1955 or 56




He had it in a Hegeman Reproducer, unfortunately the cabinet is long gone. I'm looking either getting it restored or trading it in on a pair of new ones.

Really taking a hard look at Lowther speakers right now. They are expensive though

That is pretty cool.  Any idea on how much to fix it up?
