Your radio was made for a high impedance speaker, two wires. Speakers like Atwater Kent "E" or RCA 100 series. The original speaker didn't need an output transformer.

:Hello, I was wondering how the original speaker connections were since this thing only has two speaker terminals. If this had a high impeadance speaker, did it have an output transformer with no center tap? I would think they needed to connect the b+ somewhere. I am trying to decide which speaker combo to go with since this philco sounds REALLY GOOD NOW. If I dont have to make any extra connections, I'd like to go that way. For a 1920's radio this one sure sounds good, I'd say better than some of the modern ones! If this one was high end, it must have been very expensive for its day. I sat by it for 2 hours yesterday and listened to the old music and heard sounds that were more defined from songs I have heard before on modern radios..............not selling this radio...........ever!
