299-16 on MRII564 mantaray

[jaybird]

I just got two 299-16 drivers on MRII564 mantaray horns (actually one horn got tossed during dismantiling) . I can't find any disscusion of these drivers and horns. Would these mate well with 2235's and 2405's in a three way or would they be overkill? Your expert opinions would be greatly appreciated! --- Passive or active? --- jaybird

[CONVERGENCE]

With an active crossover they should sound good The Altec 299 is rated at 50 watts AES and the Mantaray horn is wide dispersion 60 X 40 .

An all Altec system would sound better and be more efficient.

You've got yourself an expensive sound system that will require a good amp to use it at it's full potential.
