If you don't see your speaker listed on our website, then it is one that we "custom-made".  Until January 2000 when we debuted our own "Genuine Eminence" distribution line, Eminence Speaker only made custom designed speakers for companies who loaded them in cabinets or sold them as "raw" drivers.  We don't assign model numbers to custom speakers.  All of our OEM speakers are identified by their spec number.  We attach a small label to either the side of the magnet or the inside one of the basket arms with our spec number and manufacturing/date code on it.  The spec number will begin with the size of the speaker (i.e. for a 10" it would be 101123).  The manufacturing/date code number is as follows: 

Example:    EIA# for ESC     Year      Week      Serial #       Metal Group
                       67                  -01        12A          0217              G1

The "67" tells you that the speaker was built by Eminence, the "01" indicates that the speaker was built in 2001, and the "12" means it was built the 12th week of the year.
