One of the speakers on my J organ is torn .....still haven't picked it up yet, but was wondering what the ohms rating was. There's a KEI 16 ohms speaker on Ebay and was wondering if that wouldn't be a good replacement.

well they are more likely 8 ohms, wired for an 8 ohm load. There is a speaker out jack on the organ to hook up a 8 ohm load speaker.

I talked with Pleat and he thinks they are 8 ohm also wired series/parallel. Would make sense since it does have the capability to use an additional speaker cabinet. Guess I'll just keep an eye out for an 8 ohm replacement speaker now. Thanks everyone.
