If you wanted to stay Altec you could try the 414 or the 3124, but nothing will be a perfect dropin replacement.
That RCA driver was custom made for Altec by RCA to Altec spec, they must have been a...
Great Plains Audio is still building a 12 based on that concept, with a smaller horn.
I bet they could put the larger horn on if you asked nicely....

Here are the specs on that.
The FS is high on that one at 50, the 3124 might be more appropriate for your use, or you can just cross in a sub at...
Is this a PA application, home or studio? How large is the room?
What are your limitations? Size, visual appeal, output level?
They are great drivers within that output range. The reply for the...
It seemed like you were asking for opinions, and you got plenty, I hope you enjoy your journey to sonic nirvana!

A nice set of drivers and horns perhaps a 203 and a pair of 805?

I recently listed a few items for sale on Amazon(a remarkably easy thing to do, but they must sell the item already) and you can select your sale price and they select the shipping cost.
If you have...
There should be no difference between the speaker taps on the amp, I would look elsewhere for improvement.

I think any of those crossovers could use a freshening up of the capacitors at this point in time unless you manage to get the last run of them, they ran out to the H series I think which ended...
How do they sound?
I think I might have refinished them myself before carpeting, but it looks like a nice carpet job.

A man after my own heart, disassemble first, then listen is my motto.
Very nice looking piece of gear.
Tis a pity when I cannot reassemble it tho ;)

The designer of that amp posted on the Altec site a while back, Those are fairly serious stuff, tho it comes under the category of Amps with Fans which limits the utility for home use......
There...
