The alnico signature 8s reviewed here is one of weber s most affordable models and you can clearly surmise from both its looks and tones that early jensen designs were heavy inspirations.
Weber sig 8 alnico vs ceramic.
Ted weber signature series speakers use all industry standard parts and are an economical choice as a replacement speaker for low to moderate volume use.
However it didn t make enough of the kind of difference i was looking for.
8 10oz ceramic magnet 15 watt 1 voice coil ribbed cone.
I ve had a weber signature ceramic 8 vor 8a 25 weber signature alnico 8s and cva8 in my champ clone.
It exhibits very similar aesthetics and construction style though to my hands it feels heftier than the p8r.
Highly recommend this.
I used to have a silverface vibro champ that i put a weber alnico sig 8 in.
10 7oz alnico plug magnet 8 16 ohm 15 watt 1 voice coil seamed ribbed cone.
Economical replacement for late 50 s chicago jensen p10r and other late 50 s early 60 s alnico 10 s.
Brighter smoother later breakup aggressive compressed at high volume.
Are alnico speakers really worth the extra cost.

It was a nice sounding speaker and a definite improvement.
I stopped looking when i put the cva8 in it.
My vibro champ had very little clean headroom and started breaking up at low volume around 3 or 4.
