Hello all you Altec-Lovers

My Name is Michael from Germany and i´ve got a question about a 604 8L horn - cabinet which is constructed from the customer Musicconnection.
They built a speaker, using the actually design of the Duplex 604. They call the speaker Dynavox Imperial.
Here is the link :
http://www.musicconnection.de/imperial.html

Now my question :
Does anybody know something about this cabinet?
If not, what cabinet could i use best for the 604 8L?
Perhaps also as horn-construction.

Any help is really welcome!!!!

Thanks and always have a nice day,
Michael

PS : Sorry for my bad english.....:(

Hello,

There are many cabinets for Altec 604.The one you show looks like Altec cabinet 620. There is also a cabinet by billfort shown on wardsweb.org which is inspired by the 620 cabinet except it can also fit into a corner. Some Japanese sites show smaller cabinets for 604 as well. You can even use a larger cabinet like the Jensen Imperial. How large a cabinet do you want and do you enjoy woodworking? Send me a PM if you cannot find these on the www and I will try to find some for you.

Regards,
Tom

Hello Tom

Thanks for the nice and friendly answer.

I will search the web with the informations you gave me.

If i really cannot find the sites i would write you an PN.

To the cabinet : No problem for me, if it is alittle bit bigger.

The Imperial isn´t really small at all but it would be no problem.

Have a nice day,

Michael

I have 3 type of 604 speakers.
I have an original Altec cabinet 620.
I have build from MDF a cabinet by Altecs plan teh 612, and i hev from plywood a homade 620.
My opinion the best sound is the small 612. Ehe bass is so deap, and the sound is amazing for jazz and classic music.
If you listen pop-rock music i offer JBLs.

Hello sajit

Thanks for your answers.
Shure, the 620 cabinets and 612 are fine but will they work fine
with the 904 8A´s?

Can you please tell me, what are these for cabinents on your side
where the 604h 8a is monted in?
I mean the black horn enclosures here:
