    My Altec model 19 components get a new home

    just finished some 7 cubic foot cabinets with two 4" dia 5" deep ports for my 416-8b to live in. the size of my cabinets is the optimum size for a 416 according to altec. The size of the ports and length i got that info from Zilch i was going to veneer the cabinets when one night on you tube i run across some video's on Faux wood or wood graining a 5 dollar wood grain tool some 3 dollar 8 oz sample's of burnt umber and burnt seinna and a 15 dollar qt of faux glaze and a qt of white eggshell for a base coat so for about 40 dollars i faux wood my cabinets i am also running a modified version of the model 19 crossover with a tractric horn on some new 802s from great plains i will post some more pictures soon

    Hi Sean19!

    Thanks for the info. Where did you mount your horns? On top?

    I appreciate the feedback. My next step is to come up with a design
    and see what it will take to implement.

    My work is cut out for me!

    Hi Sean ! Actually IMHO optimum volume for the 416 would be something similar to the Model 19 cab which is approx. 9.35 Cu Ft.
