McMurdo Tweeter UPDATE:

I was lucky to find and buy via a BIN on Ebay for an original tweeter from a Zenith 12A-058 the seller was parting out.

As you may know the Zenith used a 12" pedestal speaker made by Jensen, the same company who made the super jumbo 18" one. Since the MP 5 and the Zenith 12A-58 were basically the same year, I guessed the tweeters used on both were similar or the same as they used identical 4 pin connectors.

The Zenith was rated 5800 ohms but my McMurdo schematics lacked its tweeter rating so I decided to plug it into one of my 18" today and VOILA it works and sounds great.

My biggest problem is the very short cord used on the Zenith tweeter does not reach the front grill since the McMurdo plug is way on the back of the pedestal frame. I will have to figure out an extension cord somehow.
