Ger van Oers

This aluminium Brown Horn (speaker) type H1 is from circa 1925. 
The 12 inch Horn itself consists of 2 parts, a cast and a forged part, which are riveted to each other. 
The base is made of solid polished mahogany.
To the left the terminals, to the right the adjusting knob

The sensitivity of this speaker is surprisingly high. This is thanks to the special Brown speaker system that is designed for use in the Brown headphones type "A". Instead of the usual iron vibration plate the Brown speaker has a thin aluminium membrane powered by a magnetic “reed” system.
