Hi, I'm new to this forum with a pair of Altec Valencia 846A. They have 806A horns and 416Z bass units, both in excellent condition, no restoration, reconing, or remagnetizing needed. The N-800F network, however, may need some help as one Lpad is a bit scratchy. Cabinets are in pretty good shape for 41 year old veneer.
What I'd like to know is what can I do to upgrade the network--replace, rebuild, or switch with another?--and the internal wiring? I'd like to get the guts in excellent order before I work the cabinets.
These speakers are sonically terrific. But technology changes through 40 years. I want to get the most out of these units that I can. I run them from a Cary SLI-80 signature, Wright Sound WWP220C phono pre and a VPI Scoutmaster with a Benz Micro M2.
Thanks for your help.
