How did I miss this thread? I own a model 96 (lowboy cabinet), Mike is fixing up a model 96 and I didn't notice until today even though the thread started on January 12. With regard to the speaker in mine, the field coil is good but I think the audio output transformer is not, as usual the audio interstage went bad, and was replaced decades ago, but the Hamond replacement went bad also. I think that the main difference between a model 95 and a model 96 is that the latter incorporated an early form of AVC/AGC, which is pretty good for a 1930 model TRF set.
Regards
Arran
