 Not that I'm interested but just curious what your thoughts are here.

All things vintage from South Korea are a bit dubious, but this is really over the top!

 Quality of the sheet metal and style of fonts (and newness, for that age) seems cheesy. Wires look modern cloth-covered repros. Most WE NOS or pulls have terminals, No?

Love the BIN price!

 In the description it says "nominal road impedance" and "Working range of road impedance"
Maybe it has a GPS that shows speed bumps.

 ALthough Western Electric was well known for high quality, the frequency response seems a bit narrow. 30Hz-15kHz was all that the best speakers could do back then. Today, it would be a limitation.

 Also notice he lists the date of manufacture as 2/1943. These had to be war surplus and probably intended for PA speaker duty.
Hey I had a thought! Hook with the guy that posted yesterday in Tubes with the lot of 6G6 outputs and you may be onto something.

 Chinese counterfeit? Better transformers made today anyway.
