These drivers were probably made by '67, or were about to be born then. I'll try to get ser. #'s. I googled jensen speaker history. Turns out a Scandanavian named Jensen designed the first moving coil speaker in the early 20th century. It was called the Magnavox, which became the brand name. He died in the fifties, but I don't know there's any connection between Jensen musical instrument speakers and that guy. Thanks for the welcome. It's kind of a welcome back. I used to be here more when SSS was next door.

This is a kind of bump to expand my question. What determines the design of a driver for open back, ported and closed speaker boxes. I've heard that the ones intended for sealed boxes may have a looser cone or surround, as the captive air acts like a spring. These Jensens have been in a ported home-made enclosure for quite a while. Would a sealed box overdampen their response?
