    Altec 601C cabinets

    I recently acquired these nicely constructed cabinets (I overlayed dimensions) that currently have 12" Allied triaxial drivers in them. Is it worth any effort to try and repurpose these cabinets with Altec 601C? I probably won't be able to get the bass tuned too low, but I'd be fine...

    Does anyone recognise these cabinets? Trying to ID these speakers (notice the forward grill bevel doesn't extend all the way round ... base of it is not there (see red circle). Grill slides down and out ) Drivers seem doped with dark clear coating. Populated with English drivers (see pics) and...

The tag on the front says Philharmonic Stereo High Fidelity, the writing on the am receiver has Stereophonic. There are even some schematic papers glued to...

    Wood Cabinets for various models

    When I was a boy in the 1970's, the local tv shop was also a Marantz dealer. The units were beautiful. A permanent impression was recorded upon my memory of the receivers and of the father and son who sold them. The machines were expensive and well beyond my means to purchase the one I wanted...

    Altec Santana ii questions

    Hi there, I am new to the AK community and am a budding audiophile. I've recently acquired a pair of Altec Santana II speakers and need some help. The issue seems to be with the bass. It just is not very punchy or powerful. Frankly, I expected more from these large woofers. My friend...

    I ended up re-staining the first cabinet with the water based stain to match the other one because it looked to faint.

    Cabinets in place and loaded with records. I plan to add some type of lighting on the bottom bins and a shelf with lighting on the wall above the top bins.

    Replacement speakers for Karlson cabinets

    Hi all, I picked up some Karlson cabinets a week or so ago. They came with GE 401 Coaxial speakers, which sound good, but are quite bass heavy and only 25W. What would you folks recommend to put in these things? Somebody on Reddit recommended a woofer/horn setup, but I don't know how...
