I apologize if this is a repeat post, I've done a search and haven't found a thread on this topic.

My question is: can a modern speaker be used to bench test one of our old chassis? I read in a post that the original speakers have high impedance and I know that mondern speakers are only 3-8 ohms, so I'm guessing no, at least not without significant modification...but I thought I'd ask the question.

And a follow-up, if not, what is the recommended source for a test speaker? buy an old radio beyond repair or are there new-old style speakers available?

Thanks,
