Tweeter speaker driver
made for Jensen in Canada by Radio Speakers of Canada (RSC). Model is BAYT8. Official size is 3 1/2 inches. Cross holes measurement is 4"(diagonal c/c fixation hole measurement). This speaker is dated 1965. This driver is a tweeter and recommended capacitor to use is 10uf 25Volt Non polar for optimal result. Don't use loud without capacitor. These drivers were often used in stereo furniture hifi combo and speaker boxes. Output power rated is unknown but this format could be in the 5 to 10 watt range and up to 20 watts with proper capacitor. Coil resistance measurement shows it is most probably an 8 ohm impedance driver. Tested with a low power PA amplifier and
sound is great with no anomaly noticed.
FULLY TESTED
All my Speaker drivers are tested with music at the proper impedance setting using a multiple impedance output PA amplifier from radio shack and a FLAC music player on AUX. My criteria is simple, to hear a nice clean sound with no distortion or scratchy sound due to defective voice coil or impurities accumulated on magnet, or due to any cone issues. The type of sound a driver delivers is not considered in the analyse as there are many types of sound depending of many construction aspect (IE: less bass/treble) and it's uses. One of the photos with listing may show the driver under test (if there are wires connected).
