MungoBass Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) This new speaker was sent direct from SWR to a very popular ‘80s British band whilst they were on tour in the USA in July 2000. The ‘invoice’ states ‘accommodation for artist on tour with blown driver’ and was sent free of charge to the bassist. It certainly looks unused and I have managed a little test with my Minimark and all seems okay, albeit at house volumes! The invoice description states ‘Speaker 10” 36oz PAS GOL III SR, JR, TRIAD, REDHEAD’. It is no lightweight and looks to be a very well made unit. Shipping can be arranged but collection in person is welcomed. Edited April 12, 2023 by MungoBass Sold 2
Downunderwonder Posted November 9, 2022 Posted November 9, 2022 It's worth plenty to anyone that blows one in their 410 Goliath as they are otherwise made of unobtainium. You need to test it though. 1

MungoBass Posted December 23, 2022 Author Posted December 23, 2022 Bump for a nice Christmas project?
MungoBass Posted January 2, 2023 Author Posted January 2, 2023 PM replied to. Would make a nice upgrade to a combo!
angelogotti Posted March 26, 2023 Posted March 26, 2023 Hi MungoBass, is the speaker still available? can you send in Italy? Let me know Thanks!!
MungoBass Posted March 26, 2023 Author Posted March 26, 2023 Hi. It is still available. I will PM you.
Pea Turgh Posted April 3, 2023 Posted April 3, 2023 Hello @MungoBass. I don’t need another project, but this is Basschat after all. £30 has me interested 😂 Do you know the ohm rating? 1

I am not around today to check the box or paperwork but there is an 8 stamped on the frame… I will check tomorrow morning! 1
MungoBass Posted April 5, 2023 Author Posted April 5, 2023 Hi @Pea Turgh Apologies for the slow reply. I have checked the box and papers but there is nothing to show the ohm rating. Sorry. Is there any way I can test / check? Do any helpful Basschatters know the rating of these?
choob.squeemer Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 Hi if you put a multimeter on the terminals set to ohms, then an 8 ohm speaker will show around 6 to 7 ohms a 4 ohm speaker will show around 3 ohms I doubt it is 16 ohms but if it is, it will show 14 to 15 ohms 1
DaleASmith Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 surely its 8 Ohms given it has a large number 8 sticker on the side of it?
Pea Turgh Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 I’ve been instructed by SWMBO to purchase a tumble dryer, so there goes my projects fund for a while! 1

paul_5 Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 Also, check whether it’s rear-ported or a condenser model. 2
choob.squeemer Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 Hmmm I had a quick look around online and came across a old picture of another one for sale it looked identical except for a big 16 where you have an 8 - also came across different ones made for Eden by Eminence £29.99 new at Gear for music - who I think own Eden now I had read that Eden and SWR had used the same speakers at certain times - but that a company called PAS made the early SWR ones - couldn't find anything about PAS
