I have two Altec 12" speakers that I believe to be Altec 417s. Both are missing their maget covers so no label infomation is available. I bought them slightly used from Dick Zicari's pro-sound company in Rochester, NY in about 1975. They have been gently used in a Music Man 212 amp sporadically for the past 32 years and are still in great working condition, never reconed or in need of repair.

How do I tell which version of 417 they are (8H, 8C, etc.)? They have aluminum domes. What was the original purpose of this speaker - guitar, PA, etc?

Does anyone have the correct magnet covers they would sell?

Is anyone interested in buying these speakers?
