Re: Need info on Altecs & pic....


if you get the urge to burn 'em, i'll pay you not to.. just mail 'em my way..

efficiency is somewhere round 98-99db, i reckon. the bass speaks are great... i use their bigger brothers.. fantastic. i think you could safely call them 'bookshelves of the 70's'!

you might not find their HF to be what you want.. especially if you're used to the grainy shitey brittle nastiness of today's speaks.. i hate 'extended frequency detail'... too harsh for my ears... but the mids on 'em oughta do just about anybody...

some people like to muss with the crossovers-- if y' do-- keep 'em paper in oil or oil/foil.. otherwise they might get TOO bright , but i spose that it comes down to what you like!

spark 'em up with a 15 watt tube amp, and be in luv...
