Whiteley Stentorian Driver Identification

[moediggz]

Hey guys I got this massive horn from a custom built Georgian cabinet and cant find a model on it anywhere. Its a 15ohm Whiteley Stentorian. Can any of you identify the model or give me anymore information about it. The Wharfedale drivers in the mono cab have test result tags that have the date 1955. I asked the same question in my audiophile Facebook group and got no feedback. I figured this forum may have some super audiophile wizards with the info I need

Awesome thanks for the info. How do you tell the difference between the t10 and the t12? I had a member pm me offering to buy it for $200. I really dont know much about hifi but it is in great working condition and seems a tad low compared to what others have sold for. Im not looking for top dollar but I dont want to make an uneducated decision. Thanks again for your help Van.

The T 10 has a 1'' voice coil and consequently the magnet is smaller. The front mounting bracket is secured via two screws and does not have the extra rectangular front plate.

Stentorians are very cool. I found a 12" coax with that tweeter in a California Audio Labs cabinet.
