I recently came into possesion of a pair of goldenvoice speakers ,obviously from an old console stereo,and was looking for info other than the 8ohms stamped on the back to build a proper set of enclosures for them.They consist of 10" woofers 4"mids and 3.5"tweeters.The only numbers availible on the speakers are 10" woofer 50d60191b01,and the tweeter "100 ohm" 50d63543a07,the mid has no numbers just goldenvoice stamped across the back.These speakers do not have the large round magnets but rather a cylinder shaped one enclosed by a square metal box with "aluminim foil" on the sides covering the voice coil area.

You might measure electro-mechanical parameters to know what kind of box to build.

Thanks for the speady reply Wayne. How accurrate would those tests be as far as throwing box size off, if i were to use only a dmm (i do have an o'scope but it is an antique 50's all tube EICO).Also any recommendation on enclosure type to use with them as I am pretty sure they were originally designed for infinite baffle comming from a console type stereo,or will it simply depend on what the t/s prams come out to be?

I'd want to know the specs before deciding what kind of application to use them in. You can always go with an OB or IB, but that will generally result in less bass. Some prefer this arrangement though.
