Hello!! i´m new here and full of doubts hahaha
I was given some fine vintage set, wich belonged to my grandpa, who bought it in a trip to the US in his early army days. I´m from Brasil, this sort of gear was insanely expensive to buy here at the time. It consists in a Garrard 301 (oil bearing) using a GE VR22 cartridge in a GE tm-2g tonearm (only mistake in this set) and a Altec 602B. There was a Fisher amp, but it got lost overtime. I have many questions regarding the set, but those need to go on a different place i guess.
The issue i have is that the horns seem to be different from the original ones, at least for what i could find over radioshack´s catalogs (seems to be released in 1960) and Altec published material.I know my grandpa never needed to fix it, so it makes no sense for me. Most likely it´s a version i couldnt find nowhere. Hope you guys can help me out with that.
