HISTORY:
This 8" loudspeaker has been removed from a small guitar practice amplifier - working while in the amplifier and tested again after removal from the cabinet.
This speaker is NOT a Klipsch's by any stretch of the imagination but it is "adequate" for general purpose, fairly low power capability.

TESTING:
Before removing from the guitar practice amplifier, it was running fine. I carefully removed it from the cabinet and checked again more closely.
NO voicecoil scratching
Movement of the cone is "fluid" - feels good
The basket is pressed metal and without even a scratch
4x mounting holes around the rim.
I connected this loudspeaker to an amplifier running single tones from a test generator and swept it across 50Hz ~ 10Khz at various power levels, no issues noticed and the loudspeaker seemed to be running very comfortable. I then also gave it some complex music and again, it seemed to be fine.
Since removal from the practice amp cabinet, and my checks are now completed , I have now laid this loudspeaker onto stiff cardboard (cone down) and sealed in clear plastic to ensure no dust contamination
