Anybody know anything about High Fidelity House that was in Pasadena at some point many moons ago?
I just picked up an old mono speaker loaded with Altec goodies that apparently they made including this crossover.

No idea on the company, but I like that they specified the crossover at 497 cycles. I often thought 500 sounded too high
That the internet contains a blog documenting your life does not constitute proof that your existence is valid. Sorry.
Don't forget, these are for the 18 ohm speakers... the 16 ohm standard was too low.Originally Posted by HCSGuy

I lived in Pasadena in the '80s. That company like so many Hi-Fi shops was already long gone.

I did the same as you and checked out google maps/earth. That building either got a facelift, or it's a different building. Right off of California Ave.
to pique your interest even more, this crossover was attached to some pretty nice stuff.
