Zenith chassis 5808

[omegaman]

I got this in from a friend who picked it up gratis during a home inspection, a common thing he says since he is there, with a truck, with the owner, doing an inspection, near the "must-get-rid-of-it" terminus, looking into everything and coming across these items



The radio seem to be intact but I have not pulled the chassis yet. I'll do a complete recap on it.


This Zenith has had its field coil speaker removed and the baffle replaced by, what I can only guess, to be speakers someone had on-hand or could get nearby (ie; RadioShack)

The speaker wire is just cut clean, no connector



The questions are:

Did they modify the radio circuit to replace the inductor with a big resistor to use this crossover setup?

or

Did they just showcase the radio and use it as a ha ha cool speaker?

The Yamaha woofer is an "instrument speaker", Do guitar speakers use crossovers and tweeters? or does this say Hi Fi application?

I am looking at a Zenith field coil speaker on the bay as a replacement speaker and wonder. It has the 5 pin plug like my 5 pin socket

IS A ZENITH SPEAKER CONNECTOR AND FIELD COIL AND SPEAKER KIND OF INTERCHANGABLE?
I don't have this speaker but was wondering if it might be a replacement
