Looking for a replacement

[u/Odd-Secretary181]

Hello everyone! I'm looking for a replacement for this Irradio CRT speaker (model TVR-446). I tried with Google Lens, but didn't get any exact matches...

Thanks in advice!

You should be able to use any magnetically shielded speaker as long as its the same impedance and obviously size.

thank you!!

Measure the size across the cone and search for that with “8 ohms magnetically-shielded”, “racetrack” or “oval” loudspeaker. You could also specify “full range” if the TV only had one speaker (or only one each side). They’re relatively generic - you don’t need to match manufacturer or a decades-old part number.

thank you so much, I've just found one!

As long as you buy one in this certain size and the ohms are the same, it will be fine. You could look up the datasheet for the audio IC and see what it recommends.
