Offered for your consideration is an exceptionally well-preserved vintage Jensen E-200 heavy Alnico magnet 1” phenolic dome tweeter removed from my Jensen Model 5 three-way speakers, USA-manufactured in early 1974. The E-200 was also used in Jensen’s Model 6, Model 4, and possibly some of their other speakers from the early-to-mid 1970’s. Per the EIA source/date code on the magnet cover, “2207348”, this tweeter was made by Jensen (220) in the 48th week of 1973.So, please se...e my large photos and read the remaining description to decide if this superlative high frequency driver is correct for your needs.*Although the listing is written largely in singular to avoid any confusion, four (4) Jensen E-200 dome tweeters are available at the time of this writing. They are identical aside from two having a 7348 date code, and two with 7350. Please choose if you’d like to buy one or more in the quantity field at the top of the listing. The shipping cost will be automatically calculated by eBay checkout. This Jensen dome tweeter is in clean, excellent overall condition. The dark orange phenolic resin radiating surface is in great shape with no dimples or cracks. Plus, the faceplate is also nearly perfect with just a few light marks on the gray-enameled steel faceplate, mainly by the mount holes, and the heavy cast iron pots protecting the magnets are free of oxidation (though some appears on the cover plate). And, the +/- terminals measure the industry-standard .205”, are marked for polarity (red dot = positive), and have never been soldered on the spades. This capable tweeter is ready for many more years of service in your speaker! Most importantly, this tweeter has been fully tested and sounds remarkable—clear, strong, and detailed output with plenty of beyond-audibility sparkle. Plus, with the large Alnico magnet, it has the warmth of tone coveted by audiophiles and others that know. And, I tested its DC resistance at 6.6Ω, consistent with a nominal 8 ohm driver rating. Lastly, the faceplate measures 4½” in diameter, it stands around 1¾” tall (incl. the dome), and the mounting hole distances are just under 2⅞” adjacent / 4” diagonal, c-t-c.This is a great find if your Jensen Model 4, 5, or 6 has a blown or damaged E-200 tweeter and will have your cherished speakers sounding their best again in no time! Long discontinued, and becoming increasingly scarce (and expensive) in the secondhand market, it’s a great spare to have around just in case.As pictured and described, this superb Jensen E-200 tweeter is offered at a competitive price.Terms of Sale:Payment is due at checkout by PayPal.
