So I see the ebay ones have the same dampening bags. A key statement by the seller is that they were from a Radio station.
It appears now that there were more commercial styles made by Altec in...
The dimensions are 39.5 x 30.5 x 17. The inside has strange sound dampening bags. The underneath is of complex construction. But more plain Jane than beautiful 605 in catalog (never seen one of...
Came across this box, did not have a 604 in it as indicated in back panel sticker but a 1940's Jensen. Tag attached to back by old string is Altec and says Model: 605 'Federal' , Date: 6-13-46,...
Offer the auctioneer a trade - a set of Mackies - and some comp
'57 Paragon
20 hz Tractrix horn
[German cinema circa 1951]
Why no Horns & Triode Tube Amps :baby: ?
Like the Avantegarde Bass Hornlautsprechersysteme - they use sealed & active EQ'd drivers. By stacking Basshorn modules mouth area is increased & cut-off lowered (like in a multicell horn)(cut-off=...
What kind of driver rear enclosure for latest 'huge' basshorn in first post? Tuned? Sealed?
Thanks for reference
Your club has the right idea now.
Though most modern schlagermusik doesn't need - and shouldn't use - the sub harmonic synthesizer
I listen to Sunshine-live.de on my 4-way...
My Minuets (1979) need those white 8 inch surrounds
Are original or compatible replacements available? In White?
1980's MIX magazine featured recording studio in Denmark that did this w/ large JBL compression drivers run as dome midrange (cover removed).
It inspired me to try it using Altec 288's at the...
Thanks for link
The 802 - great driver. Deserves a big horn to explore LF performance
Here's my 802 set-up
Not wise IMO. Why pay $15k for a rare icon and then "Soup it up"?
These great flagship all-horn speakers from the 1950's (Paragon Patrician Hartsfield Klipschorn)
should be enjoyed for what they...
Never heard 'em either. Used to have some JBL SOVEREIGN's (similar drivers)(pix) which sounded very smooth, luxuriant , neutral on all types of music including classical. This despite low crossover...
Does anyone know the best surrounds (white?) for my Minuets ?
Needs two per box (I assume the same surround for passive radiator)
Would be difficult to shim VC with those metal domes ? Maybe...
They have an experimental digital system in Japan that tries to mimick real life: involves daylight-like brightness/contrast range, more advanced 3D sound, high frame rate (which increases...
Does IMAX still use film? They should be the first cinemas to go digital.
But would anyone make a digital projector that would approach the resolution of large 70mm film frame? I doubt it.
Come down to Milwaukee's "Akihabara" district :D
Pair 4301E MONITORS (very accurate Nearfield Monitor)
3 X 2441 COMP DRIVERS old Aluminum diaphragms
3 X 2350 HORN
3 X 1" JBL Titanium diaphragms (installed in Altec 902's)
Crossovers: 800hz + 7khz. Not bad.

Did the gray early version of the 375 (as seen on original Hartsfields) have sound treatment inside back cover or were they bare metal like early Altecs etc.?
How does early 375 sound compared to...
