I acquired 2 12" speakers and was told they came from an organ. They are in very good condition and I would like to use them somehow. There is no brand name, only "P-9961 137 442" is written on the magnet and "1221-G1" is written on the inside of the cone. Is there a website I can go to to find out what brand, omhs and wattage these are? Thanks....

    Couldn't find anything on google. You can measure the resistance with an ohm meter though.

    137 442 are the pertinate numbers.

    137 is the manufacturer code for 'CTS'. 442, the 42 stands for the 42nd week of the year, and the first 4 stands the year made - either 1954 or 1964.

    So basically, you have some CTS 12" drivers made in October 1952 or 1962.

    I know that doesn't help as far as the specs, but might help point you in a direction.
