Apparently my E5 (the radio I'm repairing) is based on an earlier design 
(the Degen DE1103) which used a 16-ohm speaker and the same output 
circuitry, so a 16R would probably be a good replacement.

It's just that the existing speaker was round, and those triangular 
mounting ears are going to mean I have to either get the Dremel out, or 
butcher the case.

Ideally I want something the same size and shape as the existing speaker...

I've found an 8-ohm 3-inch round paper-cone speaker at a surplus 
supplier (Bowood Electronics) that has a larger magnet but is still 
about the same depth and I'm thinking about buying a couple to play 
with... not least of all because they're selling a few other neat things 
I want :)

Just I'd rather have the exact replacement.. I'm probably not going to 
find one, though.
