EMI 92390 - Free Score

[dantheman91]

Hi All

Picked up these EMI's with a B&O 7002 and Beomaster 900M yesterday these little EMI 92390 are damn impressive :)


The Beomaster is 6 watt drove them OK swapped out for the Nytech 252 , Thorens TD 125 Turntable , SME 3009 with Shure V15 II


On The platter is Mica Paris - So Good - 1988


Less is more :) been told not to feed them to much power which i can see why does anyone know the year of production?

At a guess, somewhere between 1965 and 1972. Yours will have tweeters across the front, as there is a filter attached. Could be a single 3 inch paper coned unit or a pair of 2 inch plastic coned tweeters.

Were there different magnet versions as the ones I've seen in B&W had much bigger ones?

I don't think these are AlNiCo, they might be lower wattage but correct me if I'm wrong.

They are the very small ceramic magnet type for use in sealed boxes, the cones will almost certainly have non-doped integral pleated paper surrounds. I've probably got the power rating somewhere.

This Version with the tweeter across the front

Taken the back cover off of the cabinets added depth time to look out for an SET Valve Amp currently using the Nytech 252

They last forever as long as you don't put too much juice through them.

I did have a cure for rubbing coils written years ago and the images are long gone but if you can understand it, it's worth a bash!
