Altec Drivers for N501-8A Crossovers

What is the model number of the horns for these Altecs and what are they worth? Found a pair of cabs with woofers and need horns.

Thanks Guys.......Mark

That's a crossover, not a horn.

You need to determine the bass bin and woofer, then the appropriate horn and driver.... :yes:

dude, go get 'em. i'm really not the person to answer this question but i'm guessing they were set up for 511 horns. don't the altec crossover numbers refer to the frequency at which they crossover? the 511 horns are a little pricier than the 811 horns but i'm sure someone here has suggestions for something that might be a little more affordable.

This pdf would lead me to believe you could be correct.

606 corner cabinets missing grills, and holes cut for XO's that don't belong in them.

Would have originally contained a 602, 603, 604, or 605 duplex.

They never took a separate horn.

Woofers indeterminate 'til you open them up, unless the seller knows....
