    IIRC, many Altec cabinets had 'ports' (what appear to be clear spaces)
    on either side of the 811 horn rather than a separate duct or port.

    THe ones with port are the later models.The 416 prior to 1974 was 15 inch then swithed to 16 inch. This poses a problem with older 210 cabs also as if you want to update you'l need to modify the size of the cab.

    Port size for DIY.

    If you watch and listen to this video with a good pair of headphones you will hear what brilliance the vott sounds like , listen till the end as the mic closes in.
