  1. have a tan royal 250 radio, plays good but suspect that the speaker needs replacing. Does anyone make a speaker that will fit ( re the magnet shape on back of speaker. I think that maybe the voice coil is dragging a little and is noticeable at low volume. This radio case is good except the gold metal plate on front is scuffed pretty badly. I believe that an 8 ohm speaker will work ok. The original was some other impedance maybe 12 or 15 ohms.
    Thanks

    1. Hi Lewie, Original Zenith NOS replacement parts are almost impossible to find anymore. Your best bet is to find a donor set. That way you know that all of the parts are within spec. Donor 250s are not very expensive, and perhaps you will get a better metal plate for yours as well. Hope this helps. Gary
