Genz Benz Speakers?

[Rich Smith]

Anyone familiar with vintage Genz Benz speakers?

I just picked up 2 Genz Benz extension speakers fo $25. And they still work!
They're very old, maybe 15-20 years, and aren't listed in the Genz Benz archive.

Horn: One 3" x 7"
Speakers: Two 10"
Cabinet: 29"H x 13 1/2"W x 12"D
Configuation: Vertical column.

Anyone know their Impedance? Power rating? Etc.

Thanks,
Rich Smith

Update:

I emailed Tech Support at Genz Benz and recieved a very prompt response from Jeff Genzler himself.

Turns out my extension speakers are about 25 years old..... among the first he made starting out:

"The cabs are 8 ohm’s. They use two 16 ohm 75 watt speakers."
"The Tweeter on this version is a Piezo which does not use an external crossover."
"If the tweeter is blown, I’d recommend finding a tweeter that fits the cabinet and then you should use an appropriate crossover to match it."
"In general the cabs were 150W RMS, 8 ohm cabs with a freq response of approx 70 Hz to 16K Hz."
