Hey guys, just curious if anyone has any information on Altec 604-E8, Cant find any literature anywhere, trying to figure out if it was original to the Big Red Monitor System or not.

Do you own a set of 604-E8s ?
Do they look this pic from HiFiDo ( except that the "E2" portion of that label has been replaced by "E8" ) ?
Thanks <> cheers
- (i) How about taking a DCR ( dc resistance ) measurement of the HF section for us , as well as a measurement of the LF section ? ( use a multimeter with the existing crossover disconnected )
- (ii) Also, how about a pic of what you own for a comparative reference ? ( pics are used as the de facto currency around here )
I'll take pics shortly. I do happen to own them.
I'm not clear on where you are getting the "E8" designation as the picture you uploaded is labeled 604-8G. There is all sorts of info on that driver on this forum if you do a search. There was a 604 model that contained "E8" in the model name as described in an old post of mine below.

Here's the schematic for the Mastering Lab crossover .
- I get the impression ( looking at the LC values ) that it's meant to be used with a 8 ohm HF driver and a 16 ohm LF woofer .
- Someone with LEAP would need to model this schematic to confirm either way .
